Hybrid wood consists partially of wood, and partially of different coloured acrylic resins. They are merged (cast) in a special process. The resulting hybrid material can be processed easily and is dimensionally stable. You may need to sharpen your tools quite often. In order to achieve great visual effects, partly ground mother of pearl shell is used, which can blunt sharp cutting tools faster than usual.
We have produced the blank offered here for you using a complex process in our own production.
The red mallee (Eucalyptus oleosa) is one of the common eucalyptus trees in Australia. The mallee occurs mainly in southwest Australia. The tree reaches heights between 50 and 65 feet.
The wood is very hard, dense, and ranges from light red to dark red in color. The grain also ranges from coarse to fine. It is good to work with when using sharp tools and polishes nicely.
Dimensions: approx. 150 x 22 x 22 mm

Finely grained wood may contain imperfections such as open knots, bark inclusions, or cracks that are typical of the species. These flaws come from the way the tree has grown and are completely natural. They can usually be filled with low-viscosity cyanoacrylate (super glue) and wood dust.
