  • Leadwood square

    £11.65£30.95
    A dark brown to sometimes nearly black wood with straight to interlocking grain. Hard and heavy with good working qualities. Turns and finishes well and takes a good polish.
  • Zebrano

    £9.00
    Zebrano is a hard, dense and heavy wood with high strength properties and very high stiffness. It works well with hand tools and in most machining operations. Planing can be tricky, since interlocked grain can tear badly, so sanding is advised for a final finish. Gluing is satisfactory if care is taken.
  • Out of stock
    The wood has good wearing properties and resistance to abrasion because of its interlocked grain and twisty nature. Olive does polish to an excellent finish.
  • Bocote

    £9.00
    Bocote is a wood that resembles rosewood and hence it is often called Mexican rosewood. It is found throughout much of  South America and Mexico. It is used for turning, inlays, furniture, tool handles, cabinetry, decking and veneers.
  • Roupala Lacewood is light pink to silvery sheen with small flaky grain due to the large rays. Attractive pattern when used in small areas. Fairly light in weight, works well with hand tools. Central and South America.

  • Pink Ivory

    £14.00
    Pink ivory wood dries slowly and doesn't split easily due to its high oil content. Its attractive colouring makes it ideal for carving, turning, inlay work and even musical instruments.

Purpleheart has high bending and crushing strength and stiffness with medium resistance to shock loads.
