Black Walnut’s heartwood ranges from pale brown to a dark chocolate brown. It is also known for having a red, purple, or grey cast and the sapwood ranges from pale yellow to almost white. It can present grain patterns like curl, crotch, and burl.
Black Walnut is a fan favourite of furniture makers in North America. Once you’ve worked Walnut you will quickly plan for the next time you will use it. The rich brown colour is unmistakable and pieces that live near sunlight lighten to a dark honey colour. The wood also has good dimensional stability, shock resistance, and strength properties making it an easy choice for most woodworkers.
In order to offer more protective packing for shipping - our lengths are often 1/4" less than sizes listed. Need a wider width or longer length? Please email us for a quote. Custom millwork charges will apply.
We will provide you with a 1/4" thick x 3" wide or 5-1/4" wide x 24" long, high quality thin board! These boards are flat, straight, and ready for sanding.
Working with Thin Lumber
4" and wider thins are resawn from a board thick enough to produce 2 pieces and then planed down to a finished thickness of 1/4". This milling process releases tensions in the board and may well induce slight cupping and/or bowing in the finished piece. These movements are normal and not considered "defects". They will not be grounds for a return or refund.

This was the third attempt to get item. This was for a custom Christmas present. I ended up driving 200 plus miles round trip to get wood for said product at a cost of several hours and a lumber cost of 47 dollars all because you sent it out usps two times! You guys screwed the pooch after I had an Amazon representative promise it would be delivered by December 20. You were supposed to send it ups but you emailed it usps. We had to get this corrected again. Stop send usps. They are being destroyed by DeJoy. I have a rural address and our postal does not deliver we have a P.O. Box. You guys went to default settings which are different than postal. You guys fucked the pooch an anyone ordering from you should beware
Hi Phillip,
I'm inclined to think we don't suck and you may have your Christmas shopping a bit mixed up? We in fact did ship with UPS and we had your order out within 2 days. It would be highly unlikely that an Amazon rep called you about your KJP order since we have absolutely nothing to do with them - so you'd better check your phone to make sure it's working correctly. I hope you got your present made in time and if you need lumber again - give us another try. I think you'll find we are very good at following instructions :) Happy holidays.

Easy to order online instead purchasing lumber from Lowes store. One thing surprised me that one board had a nail in it and almost damaged to my planer.
It is been 12 days from my order, but I still did not receive my lumber yet.
Hi Rayden,
This holiday season between the Canadian postal strike and all the parcel carriers having volume issues around Black Friday and Christmas - many parcels are taking longer. We apoligize for the delay and hope you may reconsider your Rating score on the actual material when you recieve the lumber. Happy holidays - thanks very much!
