The Magic Behind Our Giant Wooden Circles
Share
You might be wondering how we manage to ship those massive Baltic Birch circles to you without them arriving in pieces (literally!). Well, let me let you in on a little secret: they actually do!
Our larger circles, those beauties over 18 inches wide, arrive at your doorstep as intricate puzzles. That's right, they're cleverly designed with 4, 6, 8, or even more pieces that fit together perfectly to form the complete circle.
This puzzle approach might seem unusual, but it's the only way to ensure these giants can safely travel through the mail. You see, there's this pesky thing called "kerf."
Kerf is the tiny amount of material removed by the saw blade during the cutting process. It's like a microscopic slice taken from each side of the cut. If we didn't account for kerf, the puzzle pieces wouldn't fit together snugly, and you'd end up with gaps and wobbles – nobody wants that!
Creating these puzzle-piece circles is no small feat. It requires meticulous planning, careful calculations, and precise machine work. Each piece undergoes a rigorous quality check before being lovingly sanded and carefully stored, patiently waiting for its turn to embark on a crafting adventure with you.
We're eager to see what amazing creations you come up with using these versatile circles. Share your projects with us on social media – we love to see your DIY magic!
