About Myrtlewood
The Oregon Myrtlewood tree grows uncultivated, only in a small area along the Pacific Coast. It is of the Laurel Family (Lauraceae), as are Grecian Bay Laurel, Camphor, Cinnamon, Sassafras, and Avocado. Oregon Myrtlewood sometimes goes by other folk names such as Coos Bay Laurel or Bay and Pepperwood. All are one-in-the-same, botanically classified as Umbellularia California.
No other hardwood excels Oregon Myrtlewood in beauty of grain and variety of coloring. Golden tans and muted reds, yellow greens and soft grays, ash blonds and seal browns, often patterned with velvet black for striking designs within the wood. Here is nature's artistry unsurpassed!
Green, unseasoned Myrtlewood logs will not float. They must be hand-logged and hauled to the sawmill where they are cut into slabs from one to eight inches in thickness. The slabs are stacked in drying sheds, protected from direct rays of the sun, but given free circulation of air. For each inch of board thickness, almost one year of air-seasoning is required.
Custom Shop Design
All
of our plynths are designed to meet the most demanding in high-end audio
applications. Our solid and dense Myrtlewood solution will present well and add
clarity and definition to your specific installation.
- Battle Rock Blocks are Myrtlewood plynths cut and finished in an assortment of custom sizes for vibration absorption in studio and high-end audio applications worldwide.
- Battle Rock Studios branched into Myrtlewood plynth production when it was discovered by Kj that Oregon Myrtlewood outperformed all other woods in studio plynth applications, hands down.
- Battle Rock Blocks coupled with our own Myrtlewood or Brass footers will enhance your audio applications for a fraction of the cost normally associated with this level of sound fidelity.
Finish
Each Battle Rock Plynth Block is cut from the Myrtlewood log with a chain saw, cut horizontally with a large band saw into raw planks 2 x 4 feet in length and from 2 to 4 inches in thickness. They are then cut both from the top and bottom into custom size, planed and sanded from 50-600 grit and finished with tung oil or lacquer and wax.
Brass Spiking
We highly recommend our 1/4 x 20 brass adjustable spikes in 1.5 or 2.1 inches, or plated in black nickel, gold or silver in color.
