Description:	Soft maple is mainly used as a good secondary lumber but it is starting to come into its own for fine furniture and architectural millwork. It takes a stain well and can be finished to look a lot like cherry. Soft maple can produce a strong tiger maple figure pattern.

Note: All pictures of boards that appear wet, have been wiped with denature alcohol to help show natural color. We use denature alcohol because it evaporates and does not effect the moisture content of the wood. Also, please keep in mind that the pictures below are only examples of the wood and not actual products available for sale. Please check our Internet Store or the Flitch and Log Set Inventory for actual products for sale for this species.
