Milling Walnut Wood in Federalsburg, MD

We were recently contacted by a customer in Delaware who wanted us to mill some Walnut logs he had obtained to create furniture pieces. The wood was milled on a hot day in Federalsburg, Maryland, and the workers had to take breaks to stay hydrated due to the extreme heat. Walnut wood is prized for its rich brown color and is popular for a variety of artisanal projects such as cutting boards, charcuterie boards, tables, and desks. It's always satisfying to repurpose wood that might have otherwise been discarded. Our sawmill services offer a cost-effective solution for obtaining wood for your projects. Additionally, we have a wide range of pre-milled wood available for purchase in various sizes and types.

According to www.timberactually.com, the following are a few benefits of Walnut wood:

"1. Beautiful

With its deep brown color and striking grain patterns, American walnut is a luxurious choice of furniture that adds a touch of elegance to any home decor. When paired with white or cream furnishings, walnut wood creates a stunning contrast that draws the eye.

Each slab of walnut wood is also distinct and features its own unique grain pattern.

2. Versatile

Walnut wood is perfect for crafting furniture that is gorgeous and functional. As it is easy to shape and carve, walnut wood offers endless design possibilities for creative furniture makers.

This type of wood can also be painted or varnished to highlight its natural beauty or to preserve its traditional look.

3. Hypoallergenic

Due to the absence of sap and resin, two common allergens found in other wood types, walnut wood is hypoallergenic. This makes it a great choice for people who have allergies or sensitivities to certain materials.

In addition, this material doesn’t contain harmful chemicals or toxic substances, making it safe to come into contact with.

4. Strong and Stable

American walnut is durable and sturdy wood that resists warping and shrinking. These properties help ensure that furniture made from walnut can last for many years.

5. Rot and Termite Resistant

Black walnut wood is highly resistant to water and termites.

6. Easy to Maintain

Routine cleaning such as dusting and wiping with a damp cloth is all that’s needed to maintain this type of wood. You can also oil or wax the wood occasionally to maintain its shine."
