I've been milling some different woods for an item I'm carving on my CNC so I'll have a variety for some family and friends. So far, I've milled some mahogany, cherry, maple and ??? The ??? is what I thought was walnut since it was stashed with some other walnut. It was about 1.125" thick, so I re-sawed it to salvage some thin pieces before planing it down to the 5/8" I want. Before re-sawing, one side looked like some of the other walnut I have and one side was a bit lighter. After milling, I got what you see below. These are two pieces about 12" long by 5.5" wide; first photo is one side, second is the other side. They are sequential cross cuts from the board that was about 6' long.
As you can probably see, it has some curl or tiger stripe. These photos are bare wood - nothing applied as yet.
What do I have here?
