Shedua Thin

Shedua wood is often called Ovangkol or Amazique!

We are excited to be stocking this exotic favorite again! It seems to have many names but whatever it is called - it sure is a beautiful wood to work with! Shedua ranges in colour from a yellowish to red/brown with darker brown or almost black streaks.

Can be used for cabinets, furniture, and wood turnings as it finishes well and really pops with a finish applied! It is also very dense and heavy - but that means it finishes well and can be nicely polished! Most often used in furniture, guitars and other instruments, inlays, handles, and turnings.

Size: 1/4" x 3" x 24" (1 piece)

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.
