[QUOTE="jrock, post: 931305, member: 78569"] Density of the wood is what type of wood it is. Most glulams are made from Douglas Fir-Hemlock or Southern Pine if you are in the south which are a soft woods. Oak and Maple are hardwoods for example. 5" thick is great for stiffness of the bench. If you clamp to the surface with high pressure you can squash the wood and that will cause hard finishes to fail over time. Run a test before finishing to see how durable the wood's surface is. Just food for thought. [/QUOTE]
