Hi Art,
I received the wood in fine shape and it is beautiful! Keep me in mind for any nice curly maple that becomes available.
Thanks, Arnold

Dear Art,
Several months ago, I purchased a solid 14"x 12"x 3" piece of Black Walnut from you. My idea was to hand carve a heart shaped jewlery box that would also serve as the ring box for my girlfriends engagement ring. With no woodworking experience aside of what I had learned in middle school (9 years ago, I am now 25) I decided to embark on a new adventure. It was extremely difficult to stick to my "no power tools rule" but I did end up using two (a band saw and drill press). Alas attached are photos of my finished piece, soon to be given to my wonderful girlfriend, as soon as the leaves are fully changed here in Wisconsin!
Sincerely,
Dan Pogorzelski

Dear Art,
The blank arrived on time and it's well on the way to becoming a stunning stock for my beretta.

Hi Art:
I wanted to share with you some pictures I took whilst making a harp for and Irish customer. The walnut veneer you sent me was used on the harp's soundbox, and came out very beautiful.
Best wishes,

When I ordered the wood for my rifle from you 2 years ago you said to "Do a nice job. Send photos." So I am enclosing the pictures. Wenig did the stockwork. It turned out beautifully. Thanks.

Art,
Meant to send this earlier - wood looks terrific!!! I've surfaced everything, and planed down the relief on the flooring stock. I'm just speechless about how beautiful this wood is!! Shipment arrived on time with no significant issues.
As I've shared pictures of the wood with friends, I pretty consistently be asked "where did you get it???" and "how well did the phone/internet purchase work out?" - I'm happy to report back to you that I've passed gobywalnut.com and your name on to a number of Chicago woodworkers.
Thanks again

Hi Art,

Art,
Everything is perfect. The boards are fabulous and the trucking company was fast and careful. Thanks for taking good care of me. I would recommend you guys to anyone as in love with wood as I am.

Hi Art,
I don't know whether you are the Art I spoke with on the phone or not, but I would like to tell you how astonished I am with the beauty of the wood sent. I guess I had only seen eastern walnut in the past because this is far nicer than I imagined. The colors and figure of some of the pieces are truly astonishing. The defects in the pieces will be easy, I think, to work around. I am very anxious to begin the chairs... after I complete my current project.
Thank you for your thorough help. I was hesitant to order initially without first seeing the wood, but you made it all quite simple.

I wanted to say thank you for the great service. I ordered four walnut blanks that I needed to mill to 3x3x16. You took the trouble to find stock just a bit larger, so the cost would be reasonable. When it arrived, it was great quality and exactly what I needed. I had a tough time finding this stock on the east coast, but you exceeded my expectations. Thanks again.
