Specifications
Grain/Texture | Grain is usually straight; occasionally interlocked. Fine, uniform texture and a high natural luster. |
---|---|
Workability | Tends to be difficult to work due to its high density. Kingwood has a moderate blunting effect on cutters, and tearout can occur during planing if interlocked grain is present. Can be difficult to glue due to natural oils and high density. Turns very well and takes a high polish. |
Note | Specifications may change, please check with your local Windsor Plywood location to verify availability. Some products may be special order. |
