Hey everyone. One of my recurring projects is to make wooden cases for a conductor's baton company. As of now they are only available in walnut and purpleheart. The company is considering some new ideas. Since a lot of these cases are purchased as gifts for school band and orchestra directors they are toying with the idea of offering some cases in "school colors" such as blue, red, green, etc.
What type of hardwood would be the best candidate for dying these cases using aniline dye but at the same time not obscure the wood grain? Thanks.
