Maple Turning Wood

Maple turning wood tends to have cream sapwood; the heartwood is tan to gray in color often with extreme color changes in each woodturning blank. These blanks are not clear Maple. Many blanks have spalting and ambrosia lines. The wood is usually straight grained. Maple is a good turning wood that sands to a beautiful tight finish.

Our woodturning bowl blanks and spindle blanks are green wood unless otherwise stated. They are sealed in wax to slow or prevent drying.
