I was most pleased with this maple tree from Roswell. It was very healthy when it came down and the wood was very clean. This bowl will make someone a wonderful salad bowl.
If there is a downside to Red maple its a grayish crust that forms on the wood during drying. I have seen this also on Bradford Pear, however the Pear is “easier” to remove, however in either case both take a long time to sand through to the clean wood.
