End. — Grain and surface 
somewhat wavy, with 
longitudinal splinter-

The waviness is due to 
the presence of small 
knots and dormant 
buds.

curly, but not cross- 
grained : surface rather 
rough, splintering 
much longitudinally. 
Tan . — G rain wavy : 
surface pitted where 
the large medullary 
rays are broken across. 
Both the tangential 
splitting tests with 
sample No. (2) were 
• 
unsatisfactory, as the 
specimens had knots 
which affected the 
straightness of the 
grain and increased the 
difficulty of splitting.
