Perfect
Bought this for a project that I'm just now working on. I haven't used the Padauk yet, but it came in perfect. I love the guys that pick the wood. I have never received a bad piece of wood. I had one side cut straight and it arrived perfect. I absolutely have nothing I can complain about.

I have not started building the instrument yet as I have other projects going on as well. I am assembling all the materials I need for the instrument, and, this particular piece of wood was purchased to add an extra feature and accent.

Turns very well. The only problem is that it bleeds color into lighter woods next to it if you're not careful.

Padauk African 4/4 Lumber
Very timely shipping, carefully packaged, and I was thrilled to see that my requestor quarter-sawn wood was heeded. Excellent long lines along the length of all the padauk. Table saw broke down, so won't be able to post any pics/work on my tongue drums for a while.

My recent Padauk 4/4 order
I recently received my order and I loved the color of the wood. I have never worked with African Padauk before and I'm looking forward to it so much that I ordered some 8/4 African Padauk for some smaller sliding dovetailed boxes that I'm planning on doing.

recent Padauk purchase
the color, grain, dimensions and quality of the product greatly exceeded my every expectation. I could not have hand picked such a nice bundle of boards. I will be making future purchases from Woodworkers Source. The staff was excellent to work with and the boards were carefully wrapped and shipped. I can't wait to make something, although the boards look too nice to cut:-)

Padauk African 4/4 board
Although I have no idea how to pronounce the word, I sure am impressed with the board itself--as are those who have seen it. I've been waiting to have a "go" at it, and but for the lack of time--and having to help my wife clean out the garage--I would have already been tinkering with the board. It's time is coming. You guys are wonderful as per your selection & handling of my requests. I'm not able to give you as much business as I'd like, but when I do you ALWAYS come through! Well done, again!!!

Great wood
Pictures really can't do this wood justice, it's color has to be viewed in person. Quick shipping, perfect lumber. 100% usable. I use this to make bows and these guys really jump through hoops to provide me with the size specifications I need. Highly recommend them to everyone.

The Redder the Better!
I was worried at first because the online picture are not what I expect from Padauk. But what I got was perfect. A bright solid red to work perfectly with the Yellow heart (satinwood).

Mail Order - Small Padauk Piece
I needed a relatively small piece of padauk to finish a project. I explained what I needed and the staff at Woodworkers Source sent exactly what I needed. In the recent past, I have purchased quite a bit of wood from Woodworkers Source but in person not by mail. I am very pleased with the mail service and will use it again when the urgent need arises.

Great job!
The planks were cut to appropriate sizes and even along the grains! The planks had little to no knots, so the planks were ready to be split and cut to size as soon as I pulled them off the truck. Thanks for the quality wood and cuts!
