But I just wonder why this particular piece is so builld worthy? "In my experience", and I stress that part, maple boards with this figure and grain direction/pattern are almost, not every time, but nearly every time, too heavy for their own stiffness. I didn't say they were "heavy", I'm saying too heavy for their stiffness. Stiffness to mass ratio.
Ok so I said my piece. If your gut was to post a pic and ask us first, then you obviously had some concerns as well.
