Richard,

Barth always used the best materials to construct the cabinetry. I think the used a company near the plant called Van's Custom Cabinetry to build their cabinets. Different woods were used, but Cherry andf Oak were most common.

You should show it to someone who is a carpenter or at least familiar with wood and they should have no problem identifying it for you.

If you can post pictures you will get the answeres on this site as well.

My interior walls are 4mm Luan plywood. They appear to have been put in by Barth before Van's did the cabinets.
