American Black Walnut Turning Blank
American Black Walnut (Juglans nigra)
Heartwood can range from a lighter pale brown to a dark chocolate brown with darker brown streaks. Colour can sometimes have a grey, purple, or reddish cast. Sapwood is pale yellow-grey to nearly white. Figured grain patterns such as curl, crotch, and burl are also seen.
It would be hard to overstate black walnut’s popularity among woodworkers, Its good working characteristics, coupled with its rich brown coloration puts the wood in a class by itself among temperate-zone hardwoods. To cap it off, the wood also has good dimensional stability, shock resistance, and strength properties
Our turning blanks are carefully selected by our expert staff. The quality control inspection ensures our blanks are as split and shake free as possible. Whilst every care is taken to ensure the blank you order is good quality, wood is a natural product and may contain hidden features. Every blank has hot wax applied to the end grain and edges to prevent end splitting through the drying process. This ensures your finished object will be stable when brought into a centrally heated environment. With a range of shapes and sizes, we are sure you will find something to stimulate your creativity and inspire your next project.
NOTE: The image shown is indicative of the items we have in stock but as this is a natural product there will be variations from piece to piece.
NOTE: Sizes may be +/- 5mm
