Our basswood is first quality and kiln dried to 10% moisture so it is perfect for woodcarving.  Basswood is also very good for woodburning projects as its clear surface does not conflict with the burning. It comes rough cut from our lumber mill and not planed as shown.  Basswood is the wood of choice for most wood carvers.  This light weight wood works very easily with both hand and power tools.  It can be painted and finished without difficulty, but does offer a challenge when staining.  Basswood ranges in color from creamy white to very light brown.  In addition to carving, in the early nineteenth century is was often used to build cupboards, interior trim and molding, etc.
