Soft Maple Ambrosia S&B 4/4 KD Random Width Lumber

4/4 S&B KD Random Width Wormy Soft Maple Lumber Ambrosia or Wormy Soft Maple Acer rubrum and Acer saccharinum Soft Maple heartwood is a light to medium brown color. The sapwood can be very wide, and tends to be a beige or light brown; not always clearly or sharply demarcated from heartwood. The wood is generally straight-grained with a coarse uniform texture. Wormy or Ambrosia Maple occurs in soft maple and is common to our Ohio Valley area. The appearance is caused by the Ambrosia beetle that carries a fungus on its legs that causes the discoloration. The holes are due to the beetle boring through the living wood. The fungus is killed during the kiln drying process leaving beautifully unique and varying character on each plank. The degree of character available varies and will be confirmed at the time of order. Proudly All American Made & Manufactured
