The heartwood of this timber is a veritable rainbow of colours ranging from yellows and oranges to darker reddish brown. The sapwood is easy to spot and is a pale yellow in colour. The grain can vary from straight (typical) to irregular and wild in some cases. The rainbow colouring of Canarywood tends to become darker and more homogenous with age and has a distinct scent when being worked.
Known for its dimensional stability, Canarywood works well with both hand and power tools. Tearout is a distinct possibility with the more figured or wild grain examples.

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.
