They seem to say that Maple burns easily with hi-speed tools. Have you
noticed that?

Yep. Particularly if your tools are not setup properly and/or are on the
dull side.

Thanks to you guys I have new bits, and DADO blade kit.

Also, reaction wood, and maple has its share, can make it worse.

That said, you can get lucky and find the burn parts can be sanded out
without too much ado, and, if you're painting, might not be that big of
an issue.

I certainly would not make that a deciding factor, all other things
being equal.

I do use a ton of maple these days. Got a good deal on some, which Leon
got on to also.

What is considered a good price?

Free! LOL

Actually a good price will depend on your location. Prices vary widely
depending on your proximity to the source.
