Eastern White Pine Carving Wood

American Basswood Carving hopes to entice you into becoming a wood carver by providing high quality carving wood.  If you are already a wood carver, experience our clear, defect-free basswood, butternut, and eastern white pine carving blocks.  

In all forms of wood carving - relief, chip, wildlife, figure, and whittling - demand certain requirements.  Though any wood can be carved, very few offer a grain structure that produces superb results.  A woodcarver looks for wood that displays an even grain and consistent density.  For the best results, you must cut with the grain.  Thus, you want a straight grain.  If the grain is irregular, you might not know its direction.  For this reason, woods such as basswood and butternut have become woodcarvers' favorites.

We offer superb basswood and butternut blocks and lumber at very competitive prices!

Let us supply you with excellent blocks of wood that will make your carving a joy!
