What finish-grade woods are best for visible, consumer-facing parts?
Maple, birch, and walnut are popular choices for visible parts. They have smooth grain, stability, and consistent stain or paint absorption.
Are softwoods appropriate for precision CNC machining?
Yes, in certain cases. Softwoods like pine and cedar can be used for shaped parts that don’t require high structural integrity or extremely tight tolerances.
What wood species are available for CNC routed and shaped parts?
We offer a wide range of wood species, including maple, birch, beech, oak, walnut, poplar, and more. Species can be selected based on strength, grain detail, or finish compatibility.
