Went to Wall lumber today and came home with some beautiful wide ash, soft maple and a smaller amount of hard maple, which I got mixed up with the soft. And the maples are the same length and same end paint. So how do I separate them/
Some soft maple stands out just from the color but I got a lot of boards where I cant tell the difference in the rough. So will try the fingernail test and check the end grain, feel the weight difference which is hard with varying width. Any other ways to identify rough maple? Can't believe I didn't mark them.
