Macassar Ebony is prized for its bold contrasting stripes of jet black, dark brown, and warm tan. It is very dense and hard, takes a glass-smooth finish, and polishes beautifully. The 8/4 thickness gives you flexibility to resaw, laminate, or mill thicker components without losing your target dimension. Does Macassar Ebony need to be milled before use? Yes. Rough sawn boards should be jointed, planed, and ripped to your final dimensions. Allow the wood to acclimate to your shop for 1-2 weeks before milling, and take light passes with sharp carbide tooling to manage the density and natural oils.
