I purchase the wooden balls and eggs by the hundreds.They never come up short and every piece has a beautiful shape.I also purchase the wooden dowels by the hundreds and they are always straight and remain that way with out warping over time.As Artist know not all wood paints the same but Woodpecker wood makes for a beautiful canvas.I highly recommend Woodpecker for all your wooden needs. P.s Their customer service Representatives (Real human beings) are absolutely amazing,so helpful and they are there to make sure that every customer is 100% satisfied.God Bless this company and may God Bless you.
