Ash

Product Description

Ash works well with both machine and hand tools, and has a moderate blunting effect on cutting edges. Provided the cutters are kept sharp, it planes well. Ash glues well, stains satisfactory and can be brought to a highly polished finish.

Please note, the image is an example of what you could create with Ash wood.

Ash wood blanks are available in squares, rounds and spindles. All sizes are listed in inches unless stated otherwise.
