Black walnut (Juglans nigra) heartwood can range from a lighter pale brown to a dark chocolate brown with darker brown streaks. Color can have a grey, purple, or reddish cast. Sapwood is nearly white. It has a medium texture, the grain is usually straight, but it can be irregular. Black walnut can occasionally also be found with figured grain patterns such as: curly, crotch, and burl. Typically easy to work provided the grain is straight and regular. Planer tearout can sometimes be a problem when surfacing pieces with irregular or figured grain. Common uses include fine furniture, case work, gun stocks, marquetry, musical instruments, paneling, carving, turning and other small wooden objects such as pens, bottle stoppers, knife handles and pepper mills.

Not The best quality
Convenient packaging and sale price were plusses. However, the wood soon showed signs of severe cupping and had to be clamped to a flat surface until ai was ready to use it. I bought two packages to insure there would be enough usable wood for the project planned. I was glad I did as there was a significant amount of light colored sap wood, and even remnants of bark olong the edge of one piece. One piece had a large knot with significant cracking that resulted in the loss of 30 square inches. Other pieces had gouges and voids that caused loss of usable wood. The attached photos show the knots and voids. While this isn't sold as dimensional lumber, I still expected there would be less waste material.

Do not examples yet!!!
I anticipate very good scroll saw results with this wood. Have not started this project yet.

Nice wood, a tad pricey
Nice quality wood, is working well for scroll saw projects. A bit expensive for such a small amount...
