A gorgeous creamy yellow wood that's dense enough for flooring and cuts and routs like butter. Very consistent in color, too. Guatambu, hailing from Paraguay, leaves good crisp edges which makes it a wonderful wood to use for inlay, small accessory parts, intarsia, as well as furniture. It's also used for model ship building becuase of these good machining qualities.
Thickness: 13/16'' thick, surfaced smooth two sides (4/4 S2S)
Widths: 4''-7'' with the edges still rough. Straight line ripping on one edge is available as well (see below).
Lengths: Up to 8'
Grade: Select & Better. See our page about Hardwood Grading for some details about common lumber grades and their definitions.
 All lumber is kiln dried, surfaced smooth on both sides, and available in a wide variety of sizes. We can do custom cutting and milling for you, too! Contact us.
