This is an example of the matched or "flitch cut hardwood we use for our furniture. A nice set of mahogany on the left. The board I am measuring was actually a piece 15' long and 21" wide, this is cut in half.  The set on the right is for the Walnut and Crotch Walnut desk I have pictured on this page.
