Hybridwood consists partly of wood and partly of acrylic and/or epoxy resins in various colors. The two materials are bonded together using a special high-pressure process. The resulting hybrid material is easy to work with and retains its shape well. You may need to resharpen your tools more frequently. To achieve stunning visual effects, ground mother-of-pearl is sometimes used, which tends to dull sharp, cutting tools more quickly than usual.
We have manufactured the blank offered here for you in-house using a complex process.
The black poplar (Populus nigra) is a species of cottonwood poplar that grows in many parts of Central Europe. It prefers to live near riverbanks. In addition to a good water supply, it needs to be well-aerated gravel and sandy soil. Poplars usually live to about 150 years, occasionally even up to 300 years. The black poplar can reach heights of 80 to 100 feet.
The wood is soft, lightweight, and with long fibers. It can be worked with very sharp tools, making it very popular as carving wood. Larger pieces are mainly used as plywood. The burl wood from an enormous root ball can have brown eyes. It is gorgeous when polished and can have a stunning 3-D effect.
