Features
  • Precision Proportional Drilling: Designed with specific drill hole diameters tailored to the balls scale, ensuring a structurally sound and aesthetically pleasing fit for support rods.
  • High-Quality Raw Beechwood: Features a fine, consistent grain and a smooth surface that is easy to sand, glue, and finish with professional-grade lacquers or stains.
  • Natural Geometric Accuracy: Perfectly spherical forms provided in a wide range of diameters (6mm to 60mm) to suit various scales and design requirements.
  • Ease of Assembly: The partial drilling allows for rapid assembly onto wire or dowel frameworks using standard wood adhesives or cyanoacrylates (superglue).

Description

Raw Beechwood Balls - Partially Drilled Precision Spheres

These professional-grade beechwood balls are an essential component for architectural modelling, furniture prototyping, and technical design. Precision-turned from high-quality raw beechwood, each sphere features a pre-drilled partial hole designed to accommodate a structural "trunk" or support rod. Favoured for their smooth finish and uniform grain, these spheres offer a clean, natural aesthetic that is highly versatile for both structural and decorative applications across all professional making sectors.

Applications:

  • Architectural Model Making: The definitive choice for representing stylized tree crowns or urban landscape elements. Smaller diameters are specifically designed with proportional drill holes to fit spring steel wire or beechwood rods, allowing architects to create clean, minimalist vegetation in high-fidelity site models.
  • Prototyping & Industrial Design: Ideal for constructing molecular models, kinetic structures, or early-stage furniture components. The flat, pre-drilled interface provides a secure mounting point for handles, knobs, or structural joints in ergonomic mock-ups.
  • Film & TV Prop Making: Used for building high-quality game figures, puppets, and historical prop details. The raw wood surface is exceptionally receptive to paints, stains, and scenic ageing treatments, making it easy to simulate a variety of industrial or organic materials.
  • Product Development: Perfect for creating bespoke mobiles, educational tools, and sculptural display elements where consistent geometric forms and natural material warmth are required.
