If I'm lettin' you stand on me you better be workin' on walnut." Well, I hate to disappoint, but the first project is a small one out of red oak that I had started before my fall. Need to finish that. After that the next project will be out of Sapele and the one after that is cherry or quarter sawn white oak, probably QSWO, the one after that will be cherry. And truth of the matter is that here where I live the quality of the walnut is crappy, small quantities to choose from and at the price it sells for I can build two projects out of a lot of other hardwoods at the price of one out of walnut and finally they think that 25% sapwood in each piece is nothing to complain about. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
