If one were to attempt to make a wooden DMG case, one would hope that one has enough experience in woodworking to know.

This should seem obvious.

I used to work in a custom cabinet shop, with the right tools it wouldn't be that hard, maybe time consuming if you wanted to do a good job, but thats what it takes to make good wood crafts.

Sharp tools and patience.

Type of wood wouldn't make a difference, just depends what you want.

Some woods are harder than others and therefore harder to work requiring more precision,patience, and SHARP tools.
Some woods are prettier than others so that's just preference.

Poplar,cherry, & pine are soft so easy to work, but also easily dentable.

Maple, ash, ebony, walnut, oak are harder woods= harder to work but more durable, also much prettier.
