Using these unfinished wood hexagon shapes is super easy. First, peel off the protective paper backing that comes on most of the crafts. This was there to keep the wood safe during laser cutting and shipping. You can use these hexagons for all sorts of DIY projects. If you need a hole in the shape, just tell us the size and where you want it, and we'll add it for free. When it comes to sizes, you have options from 1' up to 24'. The hexagons are made from cabinet - grade Baltic birch plywood in 1/8 (3mm), 1/4 (6mm), or 1/2 (12mm) inch thicknesses. If you need a different thickness, don't hesitate to message us. As for maintenance, keep the wood in a dry place to prevent warping. And that's it! Have fun with your DIY projects!
