Known as Walnut’s country cousin, Butternut is closely related to black walnut and is a joy to use. Due to a fungal disease, there is a rapid decline in the species and the tree is protected in Canada. The color ranges from light to medium tan with contrasting grain lines that form distinct patterns. The sapwood is a pale-yellow color. The grain is fairly coarse and has a natural luster.
Butternut is wonderful to work with hand and power tools, although its softness can lead to fuzzy surfaces left behind by planing and sanding. Make sure your tools are sharp or work through to finer sandpapers.

Awesome Canadian Laser Wood (and acrylic) Supplier!
LOVE everything I've ordered! It's all great quality, nice and flat, great selection and perfect for laser projects. Highly recommend KJP! Please continue to carry Houston Acrylics as well- love their acrylic colours and supporting their small business as well. The pattern ply are fun and so nice too. Thanks KJP! This Canadian laser user is so happy to have found your shop.
Juts ordered this....be warned this is not a true walnut veneer
I have ordered the craft 1/8" walnut plywood from KJP with great results, but this 'TruFlat' stuff is not real walnut. In any case, looks very different from the other laserable walnut mdf-veneered product I have from Trotec, as well as the other craft ply walnut from KJP- which is good for lasering, btw. Order a sample first. It is very flat tho, but lookswise its not what we were looking for... not going to get this again.
