I am going to build one and am thinking about using walnut wood. Do any of you weekend wood workers have any thoughts on walnut or any type of food safe finish/oil, etc?

Um. I have 2 hanging behind my garbage can you can have. Wooden pizza peels are horrible in my opinion. Buy a pizza screen or use parchment paper.

I use a wooden peel, and with a little flour rubbed on, no problem at all.Packerland, Wisconsin

Any hardwood should be fine, like walnut or maple. I wouldn't even put a finish on it, but if you do, some type of food-safe finish like mineral oil or a salad-bowl type of finish.
