I have an opportunity to get some Black Locust sawn up from a guy who has a couple of logs.After reading about it,I'm interested in getting some for some smaller projects like wood tops or smaller cabinet jobs.From what I read it is very hard,but is very nice looking,and stable.I was wondering how it would look if I have it quarter sawn,would I get straight grain like quarter sawn white oak?I don't care if it has the flecks in it like white oak,I just want the straight grain.Also,can you get Locust veneer?I looked around and didn't see any from my suppliers,I am just thinking ahead if I do a cabinet job with it and need to lay up some panels.If it's not available,is there another species that would match that I could get in veneer if I needed to?
