This is a solid cherry panel glued up from narrow strips, machined S4S so all four sides are flat, square and parallel at the stated thickness. Cherry is prized for its workability: it cuts and sands cleanly by hand or machine and takes a fine finish. The color starts pinkish-rosy and deepens to a rich red over years, which suits furniture, boxes and trim that will be seen. Against solid wide boards, an edge-glued panel is more stable and less prone to cupping, and it saves you the glue-up and planing work.

This is solid black cherry hardwood in plank form. Cherry has a rich color and is easy to work with hand tools. It takes an excellent finish and polish.
Cherry leaves the sawmill with a pinkish, rosy tone. Over the years it darkens to a deep, lustrous red.
Every board is machined S4S (surfaced four sides), so the surfaces are parallel and square and the board is at its actual dimensions. The stock is planed to 1/8", 1/4", 1/2" and 3/4" thicknesses, which saves planer work. Thin boards suit edging, veneering, marquetry, decorative box sides, bending stock and bent laminations.
