    If you see any soft maple that has what looks like a paint splatter on the end like this.

    Right where I want to be.
    Spalted Maple. Do I see a guitar outline there, solidwoods?
    I would say the trailer is Maple, but the bark is a little off.

    The drive to RI is a bit long, but I'll take it. Let me know when you hit Ct, and I'll give you directions.

    That trailer load looks like some sort of a maple but not like we have here. The heart wood throws me off a bit.

    The trailer wood definitely looks like soft maple to me. Not sure what kind, I've split red maple that was black in the center like that.

    I've seen maple with heartwood like that. Not sure if they all get it, or some is just more distinct. This one had a lot - I have about 6' of this log left. I wish I hadn't cut the last few rounds off of it - I want to turn the rest into lumber.
