Hard Maple - 3 piece set

Wierd.....wild......wonderful! This fantastic set boasts a little bit of everything, and a whole lot of pinache! If you are looking for something out of the ordinary to add flair and focus to a special project you may have just found it. Unique, free-formed edge...  burled... spalted... curly... pin knotty... wide Hard Maple.  These three pieces have it all!  From color variation in the lumber to some crazy eye catching grain all around the burl and pin knot clusters.  The possibilities are endless.

Each flitch is 9'8 in length and 2" thick (8/4) for a total of 68.7bf

This lumber has air dried for years before being finished dried.  The years of air drying did cause piece #1 to develop some lengthwise bow, but it is nothing that can’t be elimintated with the proper techniques.  Mother nature wouldn’t give us something like this without a bit of a challenge.  The other 2 pieces are flat as can be!

Total approximation of the board footage in these selections is based on the middle measurement. Since the widths can fluctuate up to 20”+ depending on where the measure is taken on each piece, the stated bf is our very best estimate.

 

Our annual summer shutdown for maintenance, inventory, and relaxation is from July 5 -12 this year – so act fast . These amazing pieces can be sold and on their way to you without the delay of a closed office for the first week in July. It’s hard to wait for lumber like this!
