Teak Woodturning Spindles are commonly known as "Burmese teak." With its striking golden to medium brown color and straight to wavy grain, this wood is a popular choice for turning. 

However, its high natural oil content can dull tools, so caution must be taken. Despite this, teak is a reliable option for gluing and finishing, especially when prepped with a solvent for better adhesion. Appreciated for its stability, strength, workability, and remarkable resistance to decay and rot, it's no surprise that teak is a sought-after timber worldwide.
