Maple by the Piece-1/8" Thickness
Total$0.00
The classic American blonde, Hard Maple features creamy white sapwood with a reddish cast, and rugged durability. The wood has an exceptionally fine, even texture, and tight pores that yield an excellent finished surface. These thin boards are machined S4S to 1/8" and 1/4" thicknesses, eliminating wear and tear on your planer. You won't have to worry about chipout, which is difficult to prevent when planing thin stock. Thin boards are ideal for edging, veneering, inlay, marquetry, sides for decorative boxes, bending stock, bent laminations and whatever else your imagination can dream up!

Grain: Usually fairly straight, but can also be curly or wavy. Sometimes exhibits decorative figuring like bird's eye, maple burl, blister, leaf, and fiddleback

S4S - Surfaced Four Sides
Planed on top and bottom surfaces to be parallel.
Both edges are straight-line ripped perpendicular to top and bottom surfaces and parallel to each other.
This milling produces boards that are ready for your craftsmanship. All surfaces are parallel and square allowing ends to be cut square or at any angle you require. Boards with this milling can also easily be ripped to whatever width your project requires.
Great for all crafts, casework, furniture pieces, boxes, moldings...really any project!

I chose it because description says it's 1/8" thick. I need a piece exactly 1/8" thick and 2 3/16" x 2 15/16". The 1/8"x3"x24" made the most sense to me.
