Basswood Carving Blocks – 1″ x 1″ x 6″ (8 Pcs)

Sand a finished basswood carving and you get a smooth, pale cream face with almost no grain lines fighting your cuts. That clean look is why so many carvers reach for this wood first. It takes paint, stain, and a clear coat without blotching.

This set gives you eight basswood carving blocks. Each block is 1 inch by 1 inch by 6 inches, a handy stick size for small figures, chess pieces, comfort birds, and practice cuts. Basswood is soft and light with a tight, even grain, so a sharp knife or gouge slides through with little push. There are few knots to trip you up, which makes it a friendly wood for new carvers and a fast wood for old hands.

• 8 carving blocks in one pack
• Each block 1 in x 1 in x 6 in
• Soft, pale, close-grain basswood
• Great for whittling and small hand-carved projects

Grab a block, mark your shape, and let the first chip fall. You will know within a few cuts why basswood stays on the bench.
