Dear All,
I am busy clearing out my garage lumber rack and moving everything to the basement to make room for the 400BF of hard maple that will be showing up next week for a kitchen I am working on.
I knew these boards were in the pile, but I had not seen them recently,

One strong memory I have of high school shop is looking at a rough board, and seeing that board all by itself as being a very pretty thing. Not that it could be made into this or that, but all by itself, this board was something to admire. No one I knew at the time got it, and in fact, most thought I was quite strange for thinking that a board all by itself could be beautiful. I know I cannot be the only person who feels this way.
The boards are 14" wide with just a little sap wood on each edge and 10 feet long, I paid $1.00 CDN per board foot (about $0.70 USD) for the cherry, and there is lots more than these three boards...
Thanks,
David.
