so you wood guru's, what causes a piece of wood to thave figure in it, let's say curly maple or quilted maple. i have a few uneducated guesses but i thought i'd hear from some of you who may know for sure first.
also, how does a lumber mill know when maple is curly if they aren't planing it to a smooth finish. if it's still in the rough how do they know. i also have a guess for this one that relates to my guess for the first one, but i'd like to hear other ideas first.
ok, so let's hear it
thanks
chris
