Well it isn’t anywhere the amount of wood that Ken and Ken just picked up but for me it is pretty good. What you see here is about 60 board feet of Cherry cut offs ranging in widths from 6 to 12 inches and in length from 4 to 5 feet. On many of these boards they have Heartwood on one side and mostly Sapwood on the other. Now I did not get a really great price on this stuff at $5.00 a BF but that’s not why I went after it. Most of the time cutoffs come from furniture manufactures that consider this wood bad. Cherry is mostly chosen due to its strait consistent grain and coloring.
I guess this is where one mans junk is another mans treasure as I love the stuff they consider junk. This stuff for example has awesome figure and colors. Some pieces show quilting while others have this really neat waterfall look. So we shall see how this wood comes together in a project or two.
