re: Mission complete!

Sweet work Bruce. That BE Maple was talking to me when I was looking at the pics. I've recently gotten some that busy. It's in 12" wide, x 20" long glue ups, totally covered, and on all of them written along the edge is the word REJECT. I simply cannot conceive what was a keeper piece. Anyhow it was in the clearance bin at my local WoodCraft. The new owner owns a very nice lumber yard, and a guy who owned a cabinet shop, going OOB, sold all of his lumber stock to Chad. What he didn't sell in the lumber store, went to his WoodCraft store as clearance stock. Got some insane Curly Maple, and some Quilted. Curly Cherry. Didn't spend 50 bux, and had to make 2 trips to get it out to the truck. Chad wasn't as interested, because all of it was around 4' in  length, or less, and as lumber goes, that is useless. For an old ass boxmaker, it's primo length, hell most of the 8' long stuff I have is almost too heavy to lift anymore. I tried lifting a piece of Afromosia that is 6/4 about 15" wide, and 8'. I had to call my Wife to help.
