🪚 Pack of 6 Solid Padauk Lumber Boards for Cutting Boards - 3/4" x 2" x 16 Review

This is pretty good stuff for the price - mostly transparent, just occasionally solid Knots and even a beautiful figure. The only downside is that despite being 16" long, the pieces are only 15-7/8" long. While all sides are precisely cut at 90 degrees, the ends are cut at approximately 9 degrees square. This means that if you want your material to be square, you'll need to trim all of the ends, leaving you with about 15-5/8 inches of usable length. Make sure you plan your project accordingly!

The tree itself was pretty nice. One part had a knot but the rest was fine. The problem is that the walnut wasn't cut properly. Although not by much, the boards weren't square. It turns out a very wavy cutting board! Also, they weren't the same size. If I had a plane, I would clean everything. But if I had a planer, I could make the boards myself!

To be honest there shouldn't be a rating below 3 here that is a quality product and represents what it is. 4-5 is

I ordered it for cutting boards and was very happy with what I got. The forests came in the expected quantities and species. All parts were within 1/8 inch in every dimension and almost perfectly straight. Two or three of the pieces had small but noticeable circular saw marks on one side, but I was usually able to arrange the pieces so that they didn't interfere with my woodwork. I divided the pieces into three and made three cutting boards (two with thin trimmings I got elsewhere, one longer…

until now I thought that everyone who gives 5 star reviews is not honest. But I am so pleased with the quality that it would be unfair to give it less than 5 stars. The boards were all straight, dry and usable every inch. I have made a very nice cutting board that I will be selling next week. I also ordered more wood for my future projects. I love the people who sell this wood because they obviously care about quality. Update: I've placed a few orders with them since then and the quality has…
