Working - Difficult to work owing to hardness and interlocked grain. Easy to scrape and sand and
gives a fine finish. There is a tendency for end splitting but distortion is not serious. Blunting effect
is moderate to high. Suitable for bends of moderate radius of curvature if well supported with a
metal strap.
Assembly - Difficult to nail and screw and tends to split, but fastenings are held well. Pre-boring is
necessary.
Finishing - Finishes smoothly and polishes well. Stains will not penetrate the timber.
