Joey home | projects | blog 259 posts in 712 days 664 days ago	I’ve seen a website before that is part of an association of lumber or hardwoods, they have pages that help identify lumber. I have some lumber that a guy who owns his own saw mill gave me. He called it black gum, another guy that i know calls it red gum. It looks alot like black walnut, but tighter grain, and crazy swirl patterns. It’s not a real hard wood though, i can dent it with my fingernail. If anyone know this website, please let me know. Maybe this time i’ll remember to bookmark it. thanks -- Joey, Magee, Ms http://woodnwaresms.com
