That wood is chestnut hickory. I'm 98% sure

Can you please point out one living instance of said species? I've NEVER heard of "chestnut hickory" except from flooring mfgs/vendors. That should tell you something? (Lots of speciation goes on with marketers.) :msp_ohmy:

Yet another vote for BW. :laugh:

Easy. Pretend I'm from Missouri. Show me where I can find one. I'm always open to new experiences. ;)

Lumber harvesters/processors/merchants routinely fuzzify wood species ID to harvest more $$. No surprise.
