| | Quartersawn Red Oak Dulcimer Back/Soundboard This quartersawn red oak blank set includes 2 pieces of book matched quartersawn red oak each measuring 4" x 32" (may vary by up to 1/8") for a total of 8" x 32" with a thickness of 1/8" (finished to 120 grit).
For the "Joined, Glued And Sanded" options, we have joined the edges of the two pieces, glued them together and sanded the resulting piece on both sides giving you a single book matched piece with a seam down the middle.
About Quartersawn Red Oak: The word "quartersawn" refers to the way that a log is milled into planks while in the lumberyard. The result of quartersawing a log is planks of wood that have a vertical grain (the growth rings of the wood go from the top of the plank to the bottom of the plank, rather than side to side). Red oak makes a beautiful looking (and sounding) instrument. Oak is a bit harder than walnut, and is generally used for all parts of a dulcimer except for the soundboard. The red oak we use at Folkcraft is native to northern Indiana. See wood building supplies made from Quartersawn Red Oak
