Balsa Wood Thins for sale

Balsa Thin

Balsa Wood is the lightest and softest of all commercial woods!

Great for model airplanes, fishing lures, carving, musical instruments, and more.

These balsa thins sets are resawn from the same piece so the colour and density will match. Sold in a set of 5. 

They will require sanding and are coming directly from the bandsaw. Because Balsa is so light you should not have any problems getting them sanded to your liking. Happy woodworking!

Looking for something thicker? Check out our Balsa Wood for additional options.

Working with Thin Lumber

4" and wider thins are resawn from a board thick enough to produce 2 pieces and then planed down to a finished thickness of 1/4". This milling process releases tensions in the board and may well induce slight cupping and/or bowing in the finished piece. These movements are normal and not considered "defects". They will not be grounds for a return or refund.
