Not possible to have too much wood.....
Grew up around fancy yachts. Dad worked on one where the boat started out as two rail cars full of teak. The captain was hired and spent two years sitting through the wood to match and select every stick that went into the boat. Even the wood painted with gray epoxy in the bilges was hand selected. Absolutely beautiful woodwork work everywhere. (And a total maintenance nightmare. I learned to lay varnish perfectly by hand from that)
True story. When the boat was damaged one year in a minor collision, the original builder went into his shed, and found a matching piece of wood from the original pile. It was 30 years after the boat had been built.
