Sapele Turning Blank Squares – 1.5″ x 1.5″

Pen makers and small spindle turners will get a lot out of these Sapele turning blanks. Sapele is an African hardwood that turns clean and holds fine detail. Each square is milled true so it mounts fast and runs steady on the lathe with little waste.

The 1.5 inch by 1.5 inch size is a sweet spot for pens, bottle stoppers, handles, and short spindle work. The wood is warm reddish-brown, and the grain often shows a soft ribbon shimmer that shifts as the light moves. It sands smooth and takes oil or a film finish well, so the color comes alive once you buff it.

• Size is 1.5 inch by 1.5 inch square turning blanks
• Sold as a set so you have plenty for repeat projects
• Real Sapele hardwood, dense and stable for turning
• Great for pens, stoppers, and small spindle turning

Set one of these next to a pale maple or a dark walnut blank and the reddish glow really pops in a mixed-wood piece.
