Add vivid colour and striking grain to your next turning project with these stabilized and dyed curly maple pen blanks with exceptional figuring. Each blank showcases the natural shimmer of curly maple, enhanced with rich dye penetration for bold visual impact. Product of Canada.
What is the size of the blank?
Each blank measures a minimum of 1" × 1" × 5", giving you plenty of material for pen kits, lighter key rings, pill holder key rings, bottle openers, and other small turning projects.
What does “stabilized” mean?
Stabilization is the process of impregnating soft or porous wood with resin under vacuum and pressure. Once cured, the wood becomes harder, denser, and far more durable.
What should I use to finish this blank?
For the best results and a high-gloss shine, we recommend thin cyanoacrylate glue as the primary finish, branet for progressive sanding, micro-Mesh for ultra-smooth polishing and a plastic polish like NOVUS or One-Step for a durable, glassy topcoat. This finishing combination gives a smooth, brilliant surface that highlights the curly figure and dyed colour.
What will my blank look like?
The blank shown in the photo has been lightly sanded to reveal the figure. Your blanks will be selected at random and may vary in colour and pattern, depending on how each piece absorbs resin and dye. Since natural density varies from blank to blank, colour variation and small internal imperfections are normal and not refundable. The blank shown here is representative; your blanks are chosen at random and may differ slightly from the image shown.
Price is per blank in Canadian dollars.
