The Sycamore Loading Block actually appears to be made out of sycamore wood. It was a common lumber for drawer sides and bottom as it wore very even and smooth with time and use. We had some at home one time when I was a kid, it's super had and dense. Reminded me of beech only maybe harder actually, pretty stuff full of cross grain and curlyque.
