• Turning Squares are partly seasoned, with no guarantee of moisture content.
• Sapwood is not considered a defect and may be found in some blanks.
• Dimensions may vary +/-  ⅛" 
• Wood dust has been known to cause allergic reactions among wood workers, therefore sufficient ventilation, dust extraction equipment, and the use of proper respirators and eye protection is essential.
