• Stabilized wood is a process where clear resin is permeated into the wood cells under pressure. This process limits expansion and contraction due to changes in humidity, eliminates checking or cracking, and makes it water-resistant.

• 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.
