A friend of mine gave me a pickup truck load of wood. He was helping his neighbor clean out his shed, the wood was in there when he had bought the property in the mid 80’s. Looks like it was salvaged from shipping crates and boxes from overseas. Some of it looks like mahoganythe rest of it I can’t identify. See if yall have any ideas.

got a couple huge hunks of wood a while back. Kept 'em in plastic. Turned one rough set aside to dry and the thing warped so badly that I am unsure that I have enough wood to take the warp out . I'm thinking of methods of re warping it back a little. Water hear band clamps an inner frame?? Any one tried doing this to save a blank?

We just bought a salvaged dining table from Restoration hardware. It doesn't seem to have any type of sealer on it. The first time I put a hot cup of coffee on it, it left a ring. When I tried to wipe with a wet cloth, something on the wood rubbed off, and it became a lighter spot. Now we don't dare use it at all. But will need to. What do you recommend we put on this table to prevent stains. This is a current dining table sold at RH if you need more info. I have no idea what type of wood it is or how old. Thanks, Anne

Sunday afternoon I picked up a load of Walnut logs from a gentleman that said the tree blew down sometime back and he pushed it out of the way but needed it gone. Need it gone, I am the person. There is another load that I have to pick up this weekend. I had some lumber ready to pick up at the sawmill so yesterday on my lunch hour I headed to the mill to drop of the Walnut logs and pick up a load of Maple. Once this is stacked, I will take the other Walnut logs and pick up my other load of Maple and Poplar that is ready. I just love fresh cut lumber!
