This wood was caked with dust and needed a scrub brush to remove it before planing.
Now to get the other two loads worth
This stuff is mostly striped and blond, maybe 1/5 boards have a bit of curl.
I've got a place for the really curly stuff, "psycho AAAAAAAA++ deluxe name hyped up" stuff that people put on ebay. But there's a minimum, and this stuff is what I'm going to focus on for a bit...
Also, I've tried calling turntex a few times, but I'll keep at it, and when time permits order what I need. I've been pulling myself in a few directions here, but overall I have a plan of some sort.
