Please note that the final material may vary slightly from the photo shown, due to changes in how materials are made and variances in the wood.  Although we use a high quality Baltic Birch plywood for most of our materials, all wood will vary in grain, color and may include imperfections that have been patched in construction.  There may be small splintering and edge imperfections.  We recommend finish sanding for all materials.  Even though some photos may show the item with finish, unless noted all of our materials are unfinished.
