    Super happy with the box of bracewood. All the wood that I inspected are perfectly quarter sawn with perpendicular grain. This box has really lowered my material cost for braces even with the shipping cost and will last me many years making ukuleles and guitars. About a third of the cost of sitka bracewood from Stewmac.
