Online Resources for Woodblock Carving

Working on a new project where I am carving artwork that could be potentially used on a letterpress printer later.

It looks like it is best to used 3/8" mahogany, poplar, ash, birch, apple or cherry plywood with an AA grade. Softer woods like pine and cypress could also work, but will break down over time.
