Laburnum is a very hard, dense wood, and has been used for cabinet making, and musical instrument making. When first cut, laburnum is very light, and as you can see from the pictures, can have an orangey/yellow hue. Drying and seasoning for several months, the wood will become darker and darker, and when worked and polished, can become a dark. My Dad mentioned that Laburnum is quite a good wood for turning. If this is the case, are there people/firms that would be interested in it? The trunk is about 1m 70 in height (before it branches) and diameter about 40 cm. It has grown to about 20ft tall, with some reasonably thick main branches. I can take photos of it if required. Laburnum is one of the most dense and darkest in colour of the UK timbers. The green – olive colour evident on fresh exposure of the wood to planing and cutting gradually darkens to a deep chocolate brown, over a period of several years. It cuts, planes, sands and polishes extremely well; it is akin to Rosewood in such properties, but not so.
Thanks GUR. I will try a project like your wood box someday. Turning something on the lathe and then carving some designs on it. Thanks Mark. This wood is hard but I don’t think it’s Lignum, Laburnum is grown in yards around here as an ornamental tree, they don’t get very big, and they are also called Golden Chain because of their clusters of yellow flowers. I had a lovely piece of laburnum however there were quite a few cracks all the the way through so I was not sure how it would turn.I manged to turn the labur. Ideally wood should be seasoned outdoors for between 18 to 24 months – the harder the wood then the longer the seasoning. Laburnum If you chop down one of these in your garden then our advice is to take it straight to the tip. Every part of the tree is poisonous and when sawn a nasty sulphurous yellow sap oozes from the cuts. Even when.
