- Turning blanks are partly seasoned, with no guarantee of moisture content.
- Sapwood is not considered a defect and may be found in some boards.
- Due to the nature of wood, no two pieces are alike, and movement, shrinkage or expansion can occur.
- Pictures are representations.
- 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.
