Angsana Wood Planks (Customizable)
Angsana - Pterocarpus indicus Species
Singapore local wood. The place where you buy Angsana wood planks in Singapore.
The Angsana can grow up to 40 meters and is commonly grown in Singapore. Many mature Angsana trees were wiped out in Singapore in the 1980s when they fell victim to a fungal disease, known as Angsana Wilt. The wood varies in colour from light yellow to golden brown to reddish brown. Angsana wood is used for furniture making, cabinets, decorative veneers, interior trimming and novelty items.
The Angsana is really suitable for wood cutting boards and serving boards. It can also be used as your wooden wall shelf. If you are looking to customize or build your own wood table, the Angsana is also a good choice. It will make into a warm, light coloured wood dining table.
If you are a carpenter or a wood worker, the Angsana planks will allow you to create amazing products.

Differences between finishing
Planed: For planed finish, the planks are run through the planer on both sides to get an even thickness across the length. You can expect some "splinters", surface cracks, slight warping, rough surface, edges that are not square on the planks.
Sanded smooth: The planks will be sanded smooth and run through the jointer for squareness. The planks are sanded to a 320 grit finish.
Oil finish: The planks will undergo smoothing through sanding, followed by the application of a premium oil to preserve the inherent charm and beauty of the natural wood surfaces.
Lead time: 7-10 working days
Disclaimer: As each tree log is unique despite being of the same species, there may be variations in colour, tones and grain on each individual piece or among the products. Please be advised that exchanges are not allowed due to the natural variations in colour.
