I am going to make a small bookcase for my son's room - 12" deep. I was going to use 1x12 pine boards. My local HD does not have pine this wide...they suggested a "Spruce-Pine-Fur" board instead. It is significantly cheaper than a pine board. Are these any good? They are also solid wood, I'm guessing they just might be a little inconsistant.

Thanks guys. I'm just looking for simple and moderately inexpensive way to make a small 6 cube bookshelf. The longest span will only be around 2 feet. I'd be afraid that plywood would look rough as well. I chose pine because I thought it would be easier to work with than say oak (and less expensive).
