Wood Hardness

I went to local saw mill today, found following lumber. I am not sure about
the hardness of the lumber, can any one give me some info on hardness or
guide me to information source.

Sycamore
Magnolia
Florida Maple
Spanish Mahogany

Thanks

Try doing a "Google" search for "Janka hardness chart". The charts I've found
aren't complete so you'll have to check a number of different ones to cover the
species mentioned.

Also a lot of other good stuff.
