What a haul. I can't imagine the cost. Thanks for sharing, Rob.

I was just at Exotic Woods on Friday. Never leave empty handed! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks so much for sharing the magnificent Birdseye Maple. Looking forward to more videos explaining the characteristics of these great woods.

I've had up to 30 eyes per sq inch but I prefer the big eyes close together. Ahhhhhh northern michigan maple

Got my guitar with AAA Birds Eye Maple Fingerboard/Fretboard. Amazing video. Thanks for the detailed video :)

Birdseye maple fingerboard? What a waste...

Great video, beautiful maple.

Super nice selection. Thanks for sharing that.

*Correction* The larger diameter log is in fact Verawood, and the taller one behind it is the Claro/English Walnut.

Is claro the stuff that's all over California?

Very nice, Rob!

Love it. BIG TIME. I work in Swedish masur birch. But this was lovely.

Nice looking piece of wood Rob

That's nice. I have a piece of AAAA Bordseye from floor of shoe factory built in 1923. But it's just normal big enough to do much with it.

Birdseye maple ！best

Spectacular, thanks for sharing

That's some gorgeous BEM. I have a dw collectors series drym set that has an ebony stained birdseye maple finish. It's absolutely stunning and I don't feel worthy to play it. I only really use it for recording sessions, and use the laminate wrapped (Ultra White Oyster) dw kit for live performances.

5:35 - thar's some gorgeous wood. That's make a hell of a neck for my Tele

very good 👏👏

Beautiful stuff rob!! I saw that you were in Knoxville. I was going to stop by and say hey, but I was actually having car trouble. Maybe next time!!

Love it!

Wow! Thank You Rob for sharing your excitement. Now I'm just waiting to see what you make with this beautiful wood.

Gorgeous

In my guitar I have Birdseye Maple fingerboard from Kiesel.

Hi Rob, that is some gorgeous wood and I'm always envious of your shop. Is it too early to wish you a Merry Christmas? :D

Never too early or too late, and Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Got a woody

you should make some guitars!

great for a guitar neck

When planning you went at an angle. In other videos I've seen they have sanded at an angle. Can you tell me what the advantage of doing that way is? Nice video and beautiful wood.

No idea why you'd sand at an angle but with a planer the idea is to achieve a skewer cut across which reduces the chance for tearout

Any of that maple or Katalox going to end up saw handles? I'm in need of a nice dovetail saw if you catch my hint haha.

Rob, I was always told it is bad practice to lay a hand plane face down on the bench like that, regardless the hardness. Place on the SIDE when not in use!
