Professional grade boards are made exclusively onsite as your order is placed, using 6mm thick, 5ply birch wood.

Birch is a popular choice as a substrate because of its smoothness, uniformity in colour, and is relatively lightweight and absorbent. The boards are sanded to an ultra smooth finish. Structural integrity is created through the 5ply construction of the board and extra bracing where needed. The smaller size boards have cradling made from solid pine. The larger board’s cradling is normally made from maple as it is a stable wood with a straight tight grain counteracting the tendency of warping caused by humidity changes.

The cradle, 9back bracing), is 3cm deep, supporting the 6mm birch ply. So overall it sits 3.6cm high. We advise that you seal the back of the boards to prevent the wood from absorbing moisture. 

Gallery Grade mounting hardware is included for you to attach, ie plastic coated wire, D-rings screws, and felt bumpers.
