People show up with maplelogs sometimes, but we don't cut it's I offered to buy these birdseye logs for a 1000 from my friend, he sold them to a guy up north that specializes in maple for a lot more. Birdseye is going for over a hundred a bf now.

Maple destroys blades faster than hickory or white oak, and only about 30 to 20 percent of hard maple is suitable for woodworking and I imagine 5 percent for finer luthier work.

Maple is big in music, I know a German guy responsible for most of Europe's drum sticks. Unfortunately, I stick to what's blocal, which is walnut, oak, hickory and cedar.
