You can fabricate realistic breakaway furniture and breakaway walls with balsa wood sheets. We carry an inventory of 4’x 8’ (48" x 96") sheets in a variety of thicknesses. Ever see a movie where a character gets a chair smashed on his back? That chair was made of balsa wood. And, you’ve probably seen characters—especially in superhero pics—get thrown through a wall made of sheets of balsa painted to look like sheetrock. Balsa wood looks a lot like pine wood on camera, but balsa is lightweight, soft, and fragile. Balsa is very easy to cut, shape, and carve. We also carry balsa wood planks (1.5"x3.5" in 8 ft lengths). If you’re looking for a unique size or shape of balsa, give us a call at 818-994-3049.
