Where do you find the time in a day for this stuff?? Oh yeah, you're young...
As mentioned, glued/lam wood will give you the best results, preventing warping and adding strength. Well seasoned, quarter-cut white oak would also serve you better but this is a proto after all. The metal-to-wood joints will be a big challenge. Look forward to seeing this happen.
