Arizona

The wood rips and cross cut extremely wonderful. When Routing take your time the wood seem to tear out easy. Also be careful when sanding by hand it also lets go of splitters easily. It's an open grain wood shapes and sand quickly. The red saw dust remind me of red carpenters caulk. I made sure I did not get the saw dust wet for fear that it might leave a red stains. The wood is super nice to use as accents.

Beautiful, but Not Dry Enough

The wood looks great but it wasn't dry enough and there was, and will continue to be some warping. Fortunately, the wood is for wood panels for the sides of some vintage stereo equipment and they'll be screwed near the four corners and therefor not continue to warp while drying.

Wood prep makes pricing high.

Planed surfaces needed surface sanding which brings down the size to .750". The amount of work to accomplish this, even on the delta x5 surface sander, may make your pricing higher than the local lumber yard. The quality of the wood was very good. Only a few sections of the boards were unusable for facia areas.
