This thin (1/4") material showed some bowing and cupping, but that is to be expected. The wood was exceptionally clear and the finish was excellent. As a scroll sawer, it is difficult to find thin material. I will be ordering again in the future.

I have as yet to use the thin maple but I have used the cherry for a musical project. The surface of the wood was very good uniform thickness which was my main need. I used the wood to form the sides and make the back of a mandolin. I plan to use the maple to make a mandolin body also. The neck of the instrument was made from two pieces of 1X3 maple also supplied by you. This is a new hobby for me and I plan to use your wood products again.

I recently purchased four 3" X 48" X 3/8" and two 6" X 48" X 1/8" pieces of cherry. All were of uniform thickness and each came with one very straight side to use as reference, however, there was far more tear-out and chatter marks from the planing than would make me happy about the 'premium grade stock' delivered.
The 3" pieces I recieved were because there were no 6" pieces available, which is what I ordered originally. I got an email asking if 3" could be substituted and I replied that would be OK if the pieces could be book matched as near as possible-either our ideas of book match vary greatly, or there was no real effort made to book match.
I will make what I have work by planing, turning the tearout to the inside and routing a bead around the top and bottom of a jewelry box I am making in an effort to minimize the different grain of the pieces.
To be fair, I did not ask for different wood to be sent; I had already taken this week off to take care of a few things, including making this jewelry box - which is the reason I accepted 3" instead of waiting for the 6" to come into stock.

I've ordered a lot of wood from Rockler and this is my first disappointment. This was an ugly mix of heart and sap wood that no amount of staining could cover. The most expensive kindling I've ever bought!
