Hardwood Lumber

 
 

Walnut, Steamed American Black

Juglans nigra

Most woods darken with age.  Walnut is the exception.  Walnut becomes lighter in color with age.

Note: 4/4 Rift Sawn in Stock

lf the forest had a class structure, Walnut would be among royalty. Black Walnut is the most respected North American hardwood with a reputation that dates back to the 16th century.

When fresh cut, the sapwood of Walnut is nearly white. After sawing into lumber the boards are "dead stacked", allowing intimate contact.... one board on top of the other. Next, the bundle of Walnut enters a chamber where it is subjected to live steam for 24 plus hours. The live steam "browns" (caramelizes) the sugars in the sapwood and blends the sapwood to nearly the brown color of the heartwood.

 

Walnut is a very stable wood, has great shock resistance (a favorite for gun stocks) and machines and glues well.

 

INTERESTING FACT:  The use of Walnut foliage makes fleas flee....fleas in our homes are a problem but according to a report in a Walnut council Bulletin, when placed in your home will ensure that fleas will leave to other places.

"Juglone" is the name of the mysterious chemical produced by Juglans nigra or the American Black Walnut tree. "Juglone" may be responsible for one of Walnut's lesser known attributes. Fleas hate it, in fact, if fleas find there is "Juglone" around, they go elsewhere. For those of us who are hunters, spreading Walnut leaves and branches in our dogs kennel will keep our pets free of fleas.
