Pecky Bolivian Walnut - Cariniana pyriformis. Has anyone here worked with this wood before? And pecky wood, what challenges does that bring?
Never even heard of it until it appeared on the hardwood supplier's website. It's pretty rustic looking, which will work with the old boat house look we're going for here. It has a Janka hardness of 1020 so it should be fine for tops and shelves for the entertainment center. And yes, we are now open to darker woods.
Should I be concerned with using wood stored outside as furniture wood? I called and it is stored outside, but maybe under roof.
