Review Summary

The reviews highlight a strong appreciation for the variety and quality of wood pieces included in these project bags, noting their usefulness for a wide range of crafting and building projects, from scratch-building to N scale modeling. Customers value the assortment of sizes and the durability of basswood compared to balsa, though some mention it can be tougher to work with. Additionally, the flexibility of thinner sheets and the need for a good primer for color retention are noted as important considerations.

Lumber In a Bag

By: mcraney.john

I received some nice pieces. There are two at 7 7/8 by 4 by 1/4. These are flat pieces of wood, not plywood. literal sheets of wood. Then I have 10 at 7 7/8 by 1 by 1/4. Again, solid wood. Nice planks for future bridge work or anything. The intriguing part to me is 15 pieces of pure wood, no plywood, 7 7/8 by 4 by 1/16. These bass wood sheets are very flexible. Make sure to prime with a good blocking primer if color retention is important. I like this bag. It is luck of the draw as to what is in any bag but I am happy
