| Post subject: | Dark streaks in Redwood- Fine or something to avoid? |
I'm on the market for a few Redwood top. I've never built with Redwood before, and I'm finding that I love the look of Redwood with dark streaks as shown in links below. Are these streak an indication of an issue with the wood, or is it only aesthetic? I imagine that it's just the natural appearance of a healthy slice of Redwood, but before spending money on a few similar tops, I wanted to confirm that there would be no unusual structural issues. Note- In some of the images, the dark streaks are near the outer edge of the top. If I were to use wood like this, I would flip the panels so that the dark streaks were in the center. https://woodfromthewest.com/collections ... board-kf24 https://woodfromthewest.com/collections ... board-kf23 https://woodfromthewest.com/collections ... board-ke58 https://woodfromthewest.com/collections ... board-kd54 |
