Thank you for showing the best of Philippines hardwood trees made into furnitures. Philippine native trees are really one of the best trees in the world.
I agree! some of the most impressive I've seen. I hope everyone will appreciate them enough to plant lots so there are many more for us and for future generations to enjoy. Thank you for watching!
@@outofdangerproject I always watching your videos, I appreciate how you love Philippine native trees, hopefully in 2 years time I'll be replicating what you're doing. actually I have put up a project in protecting, preserving and spreading awareness about our native trees when I was in Visayas, I hope I could prepare for the funding of that project. Stay safe, God will always bless you.
thank you for the video, I live in Metro Baguio, and I'm just recently into hard woods I remade our bed frame and learned about mahogany this week, I loved the color and how easy it was to saw and chisel now I feel terrible for throwing away the old kamagong bul-uls that were gifted to me, I did not know those were so valuable
Mahogany is very versatile and useful wood, but I definitely like the native species here - they make a lot of unique products. Unfortunately they are rare. Hopefully that will change as more and more people are planting them, but that will take time. Too bad about those bulul - I would have liked to have seen those. The prices really have skyrocketed in the last 10 years. Thank you for watching our videos!
Heyy i really respect your blog this is something than any other Blogs! I 've been going to baguio thousand times as i own a small but a prime lot there..and you know more places than me!! I say those antique shop which i dont know they exist! And i found a blogger that really makes sense you helped me out what kind of tree species to plant ..as am gonna try to reforest a land on a hill in my province leyte..i know gotta take consideration of the climate as some of these species might not survive in leyte but.. who knows.. i salute you for this job!!
Thank you! I do to - things have gotten so expensive, though - some of those things are maybe 3 or 4 times as expensive as what they were before. I'm curious if that's a Baguio phenomenon or nation wide
Great video. I’m having a kamagong table being built for me. I have yellow narra for flooring for my stairs and 2 bedrooms. I have a condo in Baguio and will be checking these furniture stores when I get there. Thanks for the great video.
Thanks! It sounds like you have a nice place - I've seen a couple of old places here with narra flooring, but they are rare and usually old Baguio houses. I'd love to have that someday. Thank you for watching, and let us know if you find something here you decide to get.
@@outofdangerproject What is the normal thickness for these table tops. I have an option now to buy a single piece for the table top at 2 inches thick. Thanks.
@neilmartin4187 I think from what I've seen the thickness can vary quite a bit since these are almost all unique. I think most I've seen are 1.5 to 4 inches thick
@@outofdangerproject Female Kamagong is lighter and have less black in them. I bought some kamagong and found out afterwards it was female. It was a little disappointing.
@@neilmartin4187 @neilmartin4187 That's interesting because I've heard people talk about the female/male differences in the wood - some people have said there isn't a difference, but I've also heard from others there is. I'd like to see a comparison of several samples at some point
Thanks! It looks like that's a different species that I was thinking of. There's so many species I don't know most of them still. I looked up Narek - sounds very rare now. Hopefully people will start planting them more, but it sounds like it doesn't produce seed very often

I love looking at hardwood furniture. Thanks for touring these places so we can have a better idea where to look in Baguio:)
Thank you! I do to - things have gotten so expensive, though - some of those things are maybe 3 or 4 times as expensive as what they were before. I'm curious if that's a Baguio phenomenon or nation wide

Happy New Year! Informative vlog! Is it possible to know the name of the furniture shop in South Drive? Thank you!
Thank you very much!
Narek is Hopea cagayanensis a critically endangered dipterocarp found in Ilocos norte, Cagayan and Apayao

I have a table.made of Molave and bench chair made of kamagong and balayong wood from palawan
Sounds nice! I haven't seen balayong wood that I know yet
Saan banda po ito sir mam
Hello, this is in Baguio. Thank you for watching!
That tiny chair must be really really heavy
It definitely is for a chair - I'll try to weigh it sometime. I like the chair a lot, but moving it around isn't the easiest.
@jedidazed3390 and thank you for watching our videos!
Narek is Hopea cagayanensis
