Skip planed wood is a process where we take a light pass on the jointer then a light pass through the planer. This accomplishes a few things for us. First off it allows us to take any high spots off the wood so when our customers get the wood the wood will lay flatter then rough sawn, and the thickness is uniformed at approx. 15/16” that will feed though their planer without fighting high spots and jam-ups. Secondly this allows us to better grade the lumber when sorting for quality of the lumber. This process still leaves lots of material for glue-ups and then cleaning them up on your planer or with hand tool
This wood has been kiln dried to an average of 6-8%. The hardwood you receive will be predominantly clear with small solid knots possible.
The boards you see here are an example of the wood you will receive.

American Black Walnut is recognizable by its distinct heartwood that ranges from light brown to a rich dark chocolate color. The sap wood is a pale yellow to white color. Black walnut is rated as a very durable rot resistant wood.
Black Walnut typically has a straight grain that is usually easy to work. However, figured grain such as curl and crotch can present more challenge when working this wood. Black Walnut glues and takes finishes well.
