White walnut?
 

http://www.frontiernet.net/~toller/sign.jpg
We are always asking each other if they have fed the dog breakfast, etc.; so
I made up this sign to tell. It now shows that she must be fed dinner.
When anyone feeds her, he will slide the cover over, showing that she must
be let out for the night. And so on.

The neat thing is that it is entirely black walnut. The back and the knobs
are sapwood.
Well, I've never seen it before...

Although most of us think "black walnut" when walnut is mentioned, I
came accross something not too long ago that butternut is sometimes
refered to as "white walnut".

At least a couple of threads here within the last month or two might
have been the place...

Butternut is a member of the walnut family, hence there's a basis for
the name...

Well, that is kinda why I thought my little project was interesting.
Butternut is called white walnut, but it is actually cinnamon colored.
Black walnut sapwood actually IS white; but you never see it because it
doesn't exist commercially.
