Wait no longer to turn your project. Blanks have been kiln-dried and can be turned immediately; no more worries about moisture.

Bocote (Cordia spp.) has a yellowish-brown body with dramatic dark brown to almost black stripes. Color tends to darken with age. The grain patterning can be quite striking, particularly on flatsawn areas. It's not uncommon to see many "eyes" and other figuring in Bocote; however, unlike knots, they do not seem to present any special challenges in machining. Some species may contain silica that will dull cutters. On the whole, Bocote is easily worked and machined with good results. Common uses include fine furniture, cabinetry, flooring, veneer, boat-building, musical instruments, gunstocks, turned objects and other small specialty wood items.

Features:
  • Dramatic dark brown to almost black stripes
  • A perfect option for turning custom handles for tools, kitchen utensils and bottle stoppers
  • Turns, glues and finishes well
  • Native to Mexico and Central/South America, though certain species occur in Africa
Specifications:
  • Thickness: 1-1/2"
  • Width: 1-1/2"
  • Length: 24"
What’s Included:
  • (1) Bocote – 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" x 24" – Kiln-Dried Wood Turning Stock
Notes:
  • Wood is a product of nature, and as such, no two pieces are alike to start. The same wood growing in different locales can vary greatly even though it is the exact same species.
  • Due to the nature of wood movement, shrinkage and expansion are possible. Please measure each piece carefully before starting any project.
  • Cut from quality, kiln-dried stock. The grain runs with the longest dimension.
  • Carving and turning blocks are sawn to +/- 1/4" of the listed size.
