Genuine Idigbo, machined in-house and planed smooth and square on all four faces. Choose your exact length, width and thickness from the menu above and we'll cut, finish and carefully package your board so it arrives ready to use straight out of the wrapping.
| ✓ | A lighter, easier-to-work oak alternative — similar in appearance to Oak but paler and considerably easier to machine, without oak's high tannin content. |
| ✓ | Pale, yellow-brown colour — a light, even tone that takes stain, oil and paint beautifully, suiting a wide range of finishes. |
| ✓ | Good stability & durability — moves less than many hardwoods once seasoned, and holds up well in both interior and exterior joinery. |
| ✓ | Easy to work — machines, sands and finishes cleanly, making it a reliable choice for both experienced woodworkers and DIY projects. |
Every board is selected from genuine Idigbo and machined to order in our own workshop. We plane all four faces to leave straight, square, smooth surfaces — ready for you to oil, wax, stain or finish to taste. As with all natural timber, some colour and grain variation should be expected from board to board.

Listed sizes are nominal finished dimensions; as with all planed timber, minor variation is normal. Boards are supplied unfinished (no paint, stain or lacquer applied). Being a natural material, colour and grain vary from board to board, and occasional small knots or mineral streaks may be present. Slight movement can occur with changes in humidity — we recommend acclimatising your board indoors before final machining. Photos are representative of the timber you'll receive.
