Hey guys check it out.. I’m trying to up my game and get into doing some higher end projects. I really need to make something that is profitable. I’m always building coffee tables and other generic stuff that doesn’t sell. So, I bought this piece of black walnut… idk how I feel about it, but it’s mine now.. I was thinking maybe you guys would have some suggestions for me..🤷‍♂️ i think I over paid a little for it so I’d like to know what y'all think it’s worth as well. I’ll tell you what I paid for it after a few people tell me what it’s actually worth.👍
