Balsa wood is a soft textured beige/grey wood (occasional grey streaks), with very little grain. It is soft enough that thin strips can be snapped easily and carvers need nothing more sophisticated than a pocket knife.
Greatest strength to weight ratio of all commercially available species, which explains its extensive use in model aircrafts. Ideally suited for balsa wood gliders & towers, rc model building and architectural mock-ups.
Balsa wood is a great craftwood for children to work with, since it is soft enough to be carved by hand or cut with a small hand saw.
