This listing is for one slab of Poly-Burl,"Hybrid" #A15. Poly-Burl is a synthetic material made of polyester resin and a few secret ingredients to make it easy to work and finish. Poly-Burl Hybrid is Poly-Burl with wood or other material embedded to add even more contrast and interest. It is workable with normal woodworking tools. It is very similar in working characteristics to stabilized or plasticized wood blanks.
This slab measures 4" wide x 5" long x 3/8" thick (+/- 1/8"). It is a mixture of red and mauve pearl. This piece also has Buckeye Burl embedded. The pics don't show the true beauty of this piece. Because of the shine of the piece, it is very difficult to photograph. If you are not happy with it, I have a no questions return policy explained below.
I offer combined shipping, up to 3 pieces for only $4.80. 4 pieces or more and SHIPPING IS FREE!!!
You can cut, drill or shape it just like any other blanks and when it is time to finish the scales, this is how I do it:
1. Sand to the finest grit you have available. (I stop at 600)
2. Machine buff- first with rouge, then with white diamond compound. If you don't have a buffer, you could use a buff attached to a drill.
3. Hand buff with a plastic polish like Novus, or any fine microcrystaline wax like Ren Wax.
That's all it takes to make it shine like glass! There is no need for expensive, smelly, time consuming, chemical or oil finishes!
I can make these in just about any color, color combination or size. If you need something special, just email me and I will be glad to make it for you.
If you have any questions or need any instructions, just email me and I will be glad to help!
