Tag Archives: Basswood sheets

In our shop, materials either earn a permanent spot on the shelf or quietly disappear after a few test runs. The 42 Pack Basswood Sheets 1/8” (12 x 12 x 0.118 in / 3 mm) quickly landed in the “worth revisiting” category. Right out of the box, the sheets feel clean and craft-ready—unfinished, smooth enough for engraving, and forgiving when we’re prototyping ornaments, layered signs, or small box panels. On our laser cutter, the basswood takes crisp lines and readable detail, especially on lighter engravings where grain can make or break a design. The square 12x12 format also keeps layout simple—less measuring, more making. It’s not flashy, but it’s dependable stock for everyday builds.
