A salvaged board, inherited cabinet, or rack of unfinished lumber can be difficult to read by eye alone. WoodLens suggests the likely species from grain and end-grain photos, explains hardness and workability, highlights furniture style clues, and keeps each project in a private on-device log. FOR CANADIAN WOODWORKERS AND RESTORERS Identify a likely wood species. Photograph clean, well-lit bare grain or end grain. WoodLens considers pores, colour, figure, and grain pattern, then suggests a likely common and botanical name with a confidence indicator. Confirm or adjust the match before using it as a research starting point. Read workshop traits clearly. Profiles cover Janka hardness, workability, common grain and figure, colour changes with age, origin, and typical uses. Use the information to learn how species differ before cutting, joining, or finishing. Study furniture era and style clues. Photograph a chair, cabinet, or salvaged door to review possible signals in joinery, hardware, veneer, finish, and construction. The suggested era or style is a starting point for research, not authentication. Follow practical restoration guidance. Read step-by-step notes on stripping old finish safely, filling splits and gouges, sanding with the grain, and choosing among oil, wax, shellac, and modern finishes. Always follow the product instructions for the materials in your workshop. Keep a personal project log. Save species, pieces, techniques, and finishes on your device. Revisit what worked on earlier projects and earn maker badges as your record grows. Learn the craft for free. In-app guides cover hardwood and softwood, grain direction, joinery clues, finish selection, and safer practices around wood dust and strippers. HOW IT WORKS 1. Capture or select a clear photo of bare grain or end grain. 2. Review the likely species and confidence indicator. 3. Open the profile for traits, workability, style clues, and restoration tips. 4. Save the identification to your project log. IDENTIFICATION AND SAFETY NOTICE WoodLens is an educational identification and reference tool, not a structural, scientific, or authentication service. Finish, lighting, weathering, and sample quality can change a photo match, and look-alikes are common. Never rely on the app for structural, load-bearing, or safety-critical decisions. Wood dust and finishing chemicals can irritate or sensitize; use suitable ventilation and protective equipment and follow every product's safety instructions. PRIVACY Your project log, history, and preferences live on your device. There are no accounts, third-party trackers, or advertising SDKs. With online recognition enabled, the photo is sent securely to our recognition service, is not retained after processing, and is never used for advertising or tracking. Full details are in the in-app Privacy Policy.
