I've built a bedroom set out of walnut and honestly didn't fret over the sap wood. Kind of like the natural look of it.
Designing a couple end tables now and I have some walnut I bought as a bunch a couple years ago, pre pandemic pricing yeah! Since these tables are smaller pieces I am questioning how to work in the sap wood into the use of the existing walnut or scrap it all.
I have the bunch of walnut I was planning on using for the legs and the box, I have wider nicer grain material I can use for the top. One of these boards pictured is almost all sap wood, Should I just pitch this or work it into the bottom shelf on both tables as equally as possible?
Thanks. Brian
