Bring soft tones and smooth workability to your next turning project with these poplar spindle blanks. Poplar is a versatile Canadian hardwood loved by turners for its consistent texture, easy cutting, and forgiving grain — making it an ideal choice for both beginners and experienced woodturners.
What are the dimensions of this blank?
Each blank measures approximately 3" square × 12" long, offering plenty of material for larger spindle projects like pepper mills, candleholders, or table legs. The wood is skip planed, meaning only the high points have been lightly planed, leaving a natural, textured surface that’s ideal for turning.
