Sycamore Bowl Blank
We will provide you with a high quality Sycamore turning blank. These blanks are sealed with wax as they are still drying. Once the wax is removed, please use caution in order to maximize the quality of the bowl blank. Possibly cracking may occur.
We recommend using Honey Bee's Natural Wood Cream for a long lasting and food safe finish.
Dimensions may vary +/- 1/4" as we often prefer to lightly skip dress the turning blanks to reveal grain & colour. Some blanks may also come with waxed faces and ends.

Similar to maple, the wood of Sycamore trees is predominantly comprised of the sapwood, with some darker heartwood streaks also found in most boards. (Though it is not uncommon to also see entire boards of heartwood too.) The sapwood is white to light tan, while the heartwood is a darker reddish brown. Sycamore also has very distinct ray flecks present on quartersawn surfaces—giving it a freckled appearance—and it is sometimes even called “Lacewood.”
Best forstners bits ever use.
Delivery was very well tracked and prompt. The wood was extremely well packaged and arrived without blemishes and with true dimensions.
Perfect tool, sometime with other provider the tenon is just a bit too long but this one is perfect. Very good tool, I would recommend anytime.
