Smith Lumber

Some say black walnut is the king of American hardwoods. What do you think?

We're looking to hear from our lumber customers. If you've ever purchased from us, we are asking for links to your work. We want to provide a gallery of work with links on our webpage. I'm sharing this segmented bowl by Richard Overby. A link to his site will be the first comment. If you're willing, please add a photo and a link: website, FB, IG, twitter, wherever folks can see your work! Eventually, these will be organized on our revamped website. The photo doesn't need to be of a project made with our lumber, of course, just something you've made. Thanks for sharing with us.

Sometimes trees have other uses, too. This walnut was planted in 1870 by Lucian Smith. It houses a thriving bee colony.

Freshly sawn....

Am I the only one that finds this grain pattern striking?
