The "F" is for figured maple or Quilted maple but not Tiger maple. The letter "Q" looks too much like an "O" (oh) when stamped into the wood so I changed it to "F". Also, sometimes the wood is mixed figure of Tiger and Quilt together or something wild so there I use the "F" as well.

As always Thanks Ken for the info!!!...........Paul
