Arbutus menziesii

Madrone burl medium turning squares, aka utility blanks, are an excellent size for many projects; not all intended for a lathe. These are unsurfaced single blanks, NOT impregnated with acrylic resin. The minimum square size is 1 5/8" (many are 1 3/4") and the length is 5.5"-6". This size lends itself as an excellent choice for game calls, reel seats or knife blanks and pistol grips. The burl figure within varies in appearance from the eye pattern to the flame cut or shooting star figure. Prized for its veneer quality, madrone burl appeals to just about every wood craftsman..
