Hackberry Bowl Blank Hk-437 4.5" x 6" x 6.7" 3.5 lbs. This is an irregularly shaped quarter-log of slightly spalted Texas Hackberry. It has very pretty grain that is mostly straight to slightly curving. There are some eye-catching black line spalting fronts visible in the blank, gently cross-cutting the grain. The colors are a cool gray-brown, with darker brown to black spalting features. At the moment, the knobby Hackberry bark is complete so a "barky" natural-edge bowl is possible. The bark is already a bit loose and will loosen further; you will need to secure it with CA glue if you wish to keep it in the finished turning. Hackberry is not a very hard wood and tends to be fibrous, so sharp tools are most effective. Spalted, Hackberry can be a beautiful wood and is well suited for decorative turnings. However, I recommend that you do not choose Hackberry for any projects requiring heavy use (such as utility bowls, knife handles, game calls, etc.) unless you have plans on some type of "hardening" procedure. I also recommend that you take light cuts with sharp tools to avoid the tear-out problems common with spalted woods. This blank does have some minor drying cracks that you will likely want to fill or reinforce with CA glue prior to turning. This is a GREEN to partially air-dried bowl blank, meaning that it still retains a lot of its original moisture from when it was a living tree. It has been well-sealed on end-grain surfaces with Anchor Seal and is in the process of slowly drying. It has been heat-treated to eliminate any gnawing critters. It was measured at ~25% MC in May 2022. If you need a current moisture content, please message us and we'll check its status for you. Please scroll through the photos to see all of them, if you wish -- there are more than the 3 that first display on the page. About the Tree This Texas-grown Hackberry tree was removed from a Brangus cattle ranch in Pattison, Texas in 2021. Hackberry is a common fenceline tree in Texas, and it tends to disrupt the fence as it grows. This particular tree was removed by the rancher when it interfered with his fenceline. It was saved from the rancher's burn pile and carefully sealed and dried. It was milled in early 2022, and it is now ready for a trip to your shop for the next stage in its life. We hope you will turn it into a cherished keepsake. |

Poor quality and unusable finish
Size: 12 in-100 count
Very poor plates, fiber coming off the edges. You have to wipe them before you use each one. Never seen that with paper plates ever!!

Great oversized plate for the biggest of meals
Size: 12 in-100 count
High quality, soak proof, large plate. Perfect when we are doing a big spread. I have used these for 3 different dinners. Held up to everything! Would highly recommend if you are looking for a platter size plate that looks nice and is safe to use in the microwave.

Sturdy & worth it
These plates are super sturdy and reliable! I’ve used them for parties and everyday meals, and they hold up really well—even with heavier or messy food.
They don’t get soggy or bend easily, which is a huge plus. Makes cleanup so much easier without worrying about spills.
Definitely a go-to for gatherings or busy days!

perfect size
purchased for entertaining when I need convenience and quantity. good for larger gatherings- they look good, hold a lot of food without leaking. Strong enough to carry loaded with food without sagging, thick enough to cut meat and not cut through the plate. Can warm up food in microwave and not worry. After the party just toss in the garbage for easy clean up. I will continue to buy these plates.
