I've found that cherry seems to burn better than black walnut. Black walnut
seems to take longer to season, but when it does, it seems to burn quite
slowly, and not always completely...

I've got a spokeshave body in progress (for about 6 months now) made from
black walnut firewood. Also got a pale attempt at a mallet with a turned
maple handle and a black walnut head, all from firewood.

Got 200+/-  b.f. of cherry drying in the garage - had some scraps that went
into the fireplace - burned quite nicely...
