Cherry (Prunus serotina) features heartwood in reddish brown to deep red, with brown flecks, and will naturally darken with age. It is stabile, straight-grained, and has a decent strength-to-weight ratio, though it’s not as hard as some other denser domestic hardwoods. Cherry machines well with sharp tools and it is considered one of the best all-around woods for workability. Cherry is commonly used in furniture construction (chairs, chests, tables, and accessories), high-end kitchen cabinetry, architectural paneling (as veneer), turned items and steam-bent projects, such as Shaker boxes.

Features:

Softer and easier to work, than maple or oak, yet sufficiently hard for case goods and trim.
Smooth texture makes it ideal for carving
Best color comes with time, apply a clear finish and watch your work mature to a deep, reddish brown
Native to the Eastern North America with a high population found in the Appalachian and Allegheny Mountains of Pennsylvania and New York

What's Included:

(1) Cherry Dimensional Lumber
