Used to replace a crappy and degraded under-counter plywood cutting board

The selection was as good or better as I would have gotten driving to a home center and spending an hour leafing through boards.

Very Satisfied. Great customer service. Great product.\nType of cut was not specified. Quartersawn was provided. As that is not typical, it would have been good to get the standard plain sawn; or have been asked specifically if quartersawn was acceptable.

Just needed tiny piece to match wood in gun stock to patch a hole. Found it in a corner of the piece you sent. Cut a piece about 1/8 of an inch by 2 x 3. Pegged and glued it. Sanded it down. Stained it. Applied finish. Done. Now I need to find something to do with the other 98% of the board.

BEAUTIFUL COLOR

I ordered this product with no specific project planned just really wanted some walnut, unsure how it would be since buying lumber online can be, sometimes, well... disappointing.. But Woodworkers Source did not disappoint! The wood is beautiful and clear, there is a small void in the back of the wood where a knot was, but that's nothing that a little epoxy won't fix! Beautiful coloring, and very little variation with sapwood. My only suggestion would be, if you do not have a jointer or a good hand plane, pay the extra couple cents to have them straight line rip.

The sq. footage is increased significantly so there is no doubt you are getting what you paid for.

Great Black Walnut

As always, this order of excellent raw hardwood met all my expectations. I was informed that the lumber I had ordered was not going to be "top quality" and was given an option to get an better alternative at the same price. That shows me that Woodworkers source is far more interested in customer satisfaction than overall profit. I've ordered four pro-packs of different hardwoods and am always impressed with the quality and value of the hardwoods.

I always keep a good supply of high quality Black Walnut in my shop, as it can be used by itself or accents many other species- I wanted 8+" wide and 8' long- the 3 pcs I received are top grade, very clear and a beautiful grain pattern - I will be ordering more of this very high quality lumber- all lumber from Woodworkers Source has been the best I can find, I used to drive 300 miles to the nearest city 2x's a year, since I have found the folks here I can spend my time on doing what I love- Custom Woodwork- Thanks from N.E.Wyoming

Good first experience

I order 25 board feet of this during a recent special promotion (free shipping). I'd never ordered from Woodworkers Source or lumber online for that matter. I'm really pleased with the boards I got. Three nearing 8 feet and 3 near 6 feet, random but nice widths. Lovely color on all of them--no splits, knots, or other nastiness. Good communication, and they arrived within a week - and that was after I got an email saying there would be a delay! I'll be back again.

Expectation management

I'll preface this review with you knowing that I am nearly impossible to please. Having said that, I ordered 20 board feet with certain specifications on width because I wanted to avoid glue ups. I set my hopes really low, but the day after I ordered it I got this hilarious email naming me customer of the year! Mr. Craig Haggarton really set the bar high, so high I thought that even if the wood sucks this email would make the story worth it. Turns out the wood was better than I ever could have expected, met all my requirements on width. The boards were straight, no sap wood, just perfect. I couldn't believe it. I just ordered my second order through the woodworkers source and I think it will be hard for them to match the first. Also, I ordered it normal ground delivery and it got to my house three days after I ordered it! So impressed, great job to all the 107 hardworking and exceptionally good looking workers at woodworkers source!

For $9.00 a board foot this lumber needed to be perfect.\nIt wasn't quite perfect- there are some flaws, planer marks and a bit of sapwood. It has some excellent grain patterns though so it will still make a great looking sofa table because I can work around or orient the flaws so they don't affect the project.\n\nI like the sense of humor and enthusiasm in your emails.
