I am planning to make a walnut coffee table. I have been reading it is better to use quarter sawn for legs. I called a couple mills to see if they had quarter sawn walnut and they indicated that is a pretty uncommon request.
I am planning to take 5/4 ~2-2.5" wide stock and laminate two pieces together to make the legs (and some other parts) for final dimensions of 2x2.
Should I search out quarter sawn walnut? or is plain sawn walnut fine for this purpose?
thanks for the advice!
