    I have a model project which requires the machining of some fine detail CNC 3D forms.
    Would like advice please on the most suitable wood for this purpose from my stock. I am aware that Boxwood and Lime are probably desirable but do not hold that.
    I have access to :- Rosewood, Hard and soft Maple. Iruku, American cherry. Fine grained Beech.
    Have cutter speeds up to 20,000 rpm if required.
    Practical advice appreciated.
