For turners who are just getting started and want to try three of our more popular Exotic species, or for anyone looking for some savings - this pack is for you. We will provide you with 3 x high quality turning blanks in Mahogany (1), Paduak (1), and Purpleheart (1) in the dimensions of your choice. Our 2" blanks have already been kiln dried and are ready to be "turned" into your next great project!
We recommend using Honey Bee's Natural Wood Creamfor a long lasting and food safe finish.
We can sometimes accommodate a larger blank than our standard sizes. Please email us for availability and a quote.
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.
Courtesy of The Wood Database:
Mahogany : Easy to work, glue, and finish. Tearout can sometimes be a problem if the grain is interlocked.
Padauk : Overall Padauk is easy to work; tearout may also occur during planing on quartersawn or interlocked grain. Padauk turns, glues, and finishes well.
Purpleheart : Working with Purpleheart can present some unique challenges: if the wood is heated with dull tools, or if cutter speeds are too high, Purpleheart will exude a gummy resin that can clog tools and complicate the machining process. Depending on the grain orientation, can be difficult to plane without tearout. Purpleheart also has a moderate dulling effect on cutters.

Bought different kinds of wood for my husband for his birthday! Nice pieces and in great condition.
Great looking stuff.
I'm just getting into bowl turning, and these will be great to try! I've used these woods before on other projects, and know how they work, so excited to use them in another way
Excellent service and excellent communication I will purchase again and also recommend 100%.
Usually I'm very happy with my orders. this one though made me a little upset. I've got a piece of cherry 12" x 8" looks like it was thrown on the floor and run over by a forklift. it has part of a footprint on it it looks like. Its cracked all over and should have been thrown in the fire instead of thrown in a box and sold. I really do love ordering from you and the wood I have received is amazing but if you'll throw a piece like that in this time what will I get next time. I still have to give five stars just because this is a one off kind of thing and the rest of the pieces were great.
