      Answer This Question

      A:  Yes, that is what I used it for. To my surprise poplar is much harder then pine, all my holes for wood screws had to pre drilled.

      by|Sep 4, 2019

      A:  Yes, the 1/2 in. x 6 in. x 3 ft. Poplar board is strong enough to be used as a shelf, but it all depends on the span between supports and the weight of material placed on the board.

      by|Aug 19, 2019

        A:  Keep it short or reinforce edges with 3/4 material.

              I used this board to make a sign. It had a smooth finish so very little sanding was required. Since it is poplar, a 36 in sign was not too heavy to hang.

              It worked for the project it needed it for

              I went in to find a small piece of a hardwood. I later found that while poplar is considered a hardwood tree, the wood itself leans to a softwood. That did no suit my purpose and I was not confident that using it would be safe for my purpose. It was marketed in the hardwood section.

              Very good material - easy to cut with a handsaw and use in small projects. I was making a drawer for my workbench in the garage.
