6/4 Rough Cut Walnut Lumber

6/4 Black Walnut Lumber

Black Walnut wood is a fan favourite of furniture makers in North America!

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. 

Although these boards have been skipped dress to show colour and grain, they will still require some TLC and additional milling. If you would prefer to have the milling done for you - check out our S4S Walnut Lumber.

Ok, not great.

For this price - I would expect clear lumber that is mostly heartwood.
Of the 5 pieces I received more than 50% of the boards were sapwood. At least 2 of the boards had their entire face as Sapwood. Yes there is a time and a place for sapwood, but i assure you when we are buying S4S Walnut, we do NOT want sapwood.

It should also be of note that the ends of the boards had checking cracks.

I had high hopes for KJP, but I don't think I can order from them again.

You suck

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.
-Matt, Customer Service Rep, KJP

Rough Cut Lumber

Who are they for? These are ideal for those who enjoy working with machinery or hand tools to mill their own boards.

We use this term to describe boards that require additional milling. Rough Cut Lumber have been run through the planer to show the grain however they have not been dressed. You will need to mill both faces and edges. Rough Cut Lumber are available in specific lengths with varying widths.

For example: 4/4 x 6" x 24”

You will receive a board that is just shy of an inch thick, with a width in the range of 5-6”, and is 24” long.

 

S4S Lumber

Who are they for? These are ideal for those who aren’t equipped with the necessary tools to flatten and straighten boards.

The term “surfaced” or "dressed" refers to a piece of wood that has been milled. To achieve the necessary dimensions, we select a larger board to work from. Both faces and edges are then surfaced so you can be assured that the board is flat and straight. These boards are available in specific sizes.

For example: 3/4” x 5-1/4” x 24”
