New customer first time order.
This is the first time I purchased wood stock for a project sight unseen. I am totally happy with the pieces i received for my cutting board project. The 1 3/4" square sticks were to size except for on stick that had some material missing on one end. Since the stock was much thicker than my cutting board will finish I will just remove a little less material from that one side. The wood grain on all of the pieces were clean, no knots, and the lengths were within the tolerance called out in the description on the web page. I will consider ordering from woodworkersource.com for future projects.

Color is too light
Wood is jointed well, but color of the batch I got was way too light -- hard to differentiate from maple! Other species of wood I received were fine.
