We will provide you with a high quality turning blank in the dimensions of your choice. This blank has already been kiln dried and is ready to be "turned" into your next great project! We recommend using Honey Bee's Natural Wood Cream for 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.

Unlike most other hardwoods, the sapwood of hard maple lumber is most commonly used rather than its heartwood. Sapwood color ranges from nearly white, to an off-white cream color, sometimes with a reddish or golden hue. The heartwood tends to be a darker reddish brown. Fairly easy to work with both hand and machine tools, though slightly more difficult than soft maple due to hard maple’s higher density. Maple has a tendency to burn when being machined with high-speed cutters such as in a router. Turns, glues, and finishes well, though blotches can occur when staining, and a pre-conditioner, gel stain, or toner may be necessary to get an even color.

Lovely wood, well dried and ready to turn but did have a crack in it that ran through most of it. I am just learning so I put some resin in it and am now learning that.
This was the first time I purchased a bowl blank from KJP Select Hardwoods. I am very pleased with the service and the product. I will be purchasing more in the future.
Live Edge Charcuterie Boards - Sappy Walnut
The item was prepared exactly as requested in a timely manner. I asked for multiple sheets of plywood to be cut in half, with the grain. KJP cut each of the boards into two identical pieces. I was notified once the order was complete. I arrived at the facility without notification, and the items were ready to put in my car. I'm always impressed with the quality of service from the people working at KJP. I am a repeat customer, and I don't foresee that changing anyone soon.
