Odd. I have had, in my other life as a construction animal, to mill poplar, as doors (which had to be modified) were made of it. Tough, leathery, dense, warped out of the cut like crazy, high feed pressure, hell on blades.
I asked because I couldn't figure out why anybody would use the stuff for a machining-intensive application on purpose.
I wonder if the high ambient humidity around here has something to do with it.
