S4S 3 1/2" WOOD SQUARE

Description Material: Solid Hardwood (Laminated) Quality: Eco-Friendly Hardwood Turning Blanks Grade: Our S4S (A Grade) is comparable to hard maple Standard: Kiln Dried, Easy to Machine, Easy to Stain Block: Wood squares glued to block squares up to 6 1/2", laminated Shipping Weight: 10.2 lbs Lumber vs Dimensional SQ Industry standard for hardwood is pricing by board foot and sold as lumber. While there is a standard unit of measure, board foot, there is no standardized board sizes. In addition, a wood volume formula is needed to calculate and verify pricing. Once purchased, the rough lumber will have to be milled down with a jointer and planer. Then it will need to be laminated together using clamps and wood glue to produce the dimensional square needed. Lastly, use a jointer and planer again on the glued-up square. We simplify the material ordering and production process by providing dimensional squares. Our eco-friendly hardwood turning blanks are available in S4S (Surfaced 4 Sides) and H&M (Hit or Miss), which is our rough grade. Comparable to hard maple, our squares are kiln dried, easy to machine and stain. We offer solid square dimensions up to 3 3/4" and block squares, which are laminated, up to 6 1/2".
