Ron Swanson Jr. Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 The picture is a mortise I'm cutting in Walnut. Towards the left, there's a bit of creamy, white wood. Definitely a head scratcher. At first I thought I somehow put a maple shim in and forgot about it or something, but no... This is solid Walnut. Has anyone seen this before? I have not. Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardA Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Looks to me like some trapped sapwood. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Is it hard like wood, or squishy, like a grub? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true. And, I am viewing this quarantine thing as an almost dream situation. 2-3 weeks alone in my shop? Count me in! Anyways, take care bud.
