Looks like Interstate still has the 24c. They call it the C24-XHD. 

Peace,

I’m looking for suggestions as to what type of wood to use for a project.
I’m making some small wood models.  I’ve tried Bass wood, my wife uses it for her carving, but it is too soft and does not hold edge detail well. White pine is working but the soft wood in the grain seems to create the same problem as bass wood. 
The pieces I’m making are only 1/8 inch thick an 3/8 wide so cutting is not a problem.
Any suggestions as to a tight grain wood which is hard enough to hold a edge?
