Picked up some lumber today.



Picked up some lumber for a few projects I want to work on over the next few weeks. I get my solid stock from a local dealer.  He's located in Prarie Grove, AR and is a 3rd or 4th generation sawyer.  He's semi-retired, but will take a break from deer hunting to sell lumber.

I got a few short pieces of black walnut, and several lengths of clear maple.  I went with a fairly select stock for both.  The maple is really clear and has some beautiful grain patterns, the black walnut is equally breathtaking.  I figure I will let it rest in my shop for a few days to acclimate to the moisture change.  I can't wait to get started.
