Product Description

Also known as "red zebrawood", as the grain patterns are very similar. Recommended for experienced turners. Wood typically has alternating stripes of reddish brown and black throughout. This species is moderately hard, dense, and grain can be straight or interlocked. Cutting requires sharp tools, particularly in pieces with wavy or interlocked grain. Sands to a medium lustre, finishes easily, and is stable when dried.

Ebiara turning blank

Hi,
I have received the ebiara wood turning blank and while I haven't had a chance yet to get it on the lathe, the blank arrived in perfect condition. It was securely packed with another blank and both arrived without any cracks or issues. The edges are sealed with wax, and the surfaces are straight and smooth with no discernable warpage or pitting so it's ready to go. Can hardly wait to begin working on it.
