"Duality of Walnut"

Spec piece made from walnut sapwood and heartwood (allegedly) from the same tree.

Another photo showing off the grain.

I never understood why you'd have a "home" placard or "live, laugh, love" tacky shit. Like, do you need a reminder where you currently live? Do you need a reminder to have emotions?

They look so bad! Imagine you come to my house and I have "SHIT" engraved onto an enormous stone obelisk in my fucking bathroom...

Actually, never mind that sounds cool af

My partner and I both feel the same.

That being said, my old co-working space had a sign in the bathroom: "Get SHIT done." I chuckled.

Absolutely beautiful

I love the colour of that lighter wood

I would never be able to actually use this cutting board, I would just want to look at it

Thank you!

The lighter wood is walnut sapwood, often called blonde walnut. I also love the color.

Lol I've heard that before but I always try to encourage people to use them anyway. Things of beauty still yearn for purpose afterall.

Me before tapping and seeing the content and extra picture and realizing what community this was:

Where are the walnuts being chopped on the walnut chopping board for this meme?
