Model Making Materials

Balsa rectangular rod for model making.

Balsa wood has an excellent strength to weight ratio making it a very useful model making material for architectural model building, animation & theatre design set modelling and wood crafts.

It especially lends itself to building model airplanes as its light weight and warp resistant.

• Pack size: 5 balsa rods.
• ​Single balsa rods can be bought from our shop on Leman Street London E1 8EU.
• Smaller dimension items are available in packs of 10 (see below).

To increase strength to finished wood apply a Sanding Sealer.
