Behind the Veil

Yesterday at my local wood monger I was searching for some cherry and a nice wide plank of maple. Like I normally do I dig in the back of the wall stacks to find that special neglected piece. There it was in all its glory full of shimmers and waves. I pulled it out from the rack and admired the beautiful piece like it was one of my own children. It was 4/4 s3s and about 4"x8' long ttl of 2.63 board feet Price was 7.89. It may be a little hard to see in the photos "foggy and cold here in sunny California" but the pattern is great when the sun does hit it.

When looking for an ordinary piece take a little extra time looking and that special and often neglected piece will guide you to it.
