I have alot of ambrosia maple wood that I am going to cut into rough cut bowl blanks. most of these are good size, but I do have some smaller ones. I am going to sell them sealed for around $5 or maybe alittle more for the biggest ones. THESE ARE ROUGH CUT AND GREEN. BUT WILL BE SEALED. I am not looking to make alot of money off of these just alittle money for traveling to get the tree (a hour away) and for my time. |

I see the new spin maker has got a hold of you good and tight. At least give your wife and kids a goodbye kiss - ok?

Anything in the 24"+ range? I'm also looking for some pieces to make hollow forms (at least 12" diameter and about 18-20 inches deep)

John So you looking for about 350 lbs worth? I happen to know where there was a curly hard maple - much larger than 20" diameter that was cut into fire wood sized chunks. I was too late getting there before the tree service sliced the log into fire wood length - it made me very sad when I seen it, I had to turn around and walk away. The poor old lady that hired the tree service paid dearly for a pile of firewood that she'll have to have someone else split for her. When she could have sold the log to recoup some of the cost. By now the chunks are most likely split all up from the heat and besides I really don't want to go back there it makes me right sad...
Thanks

I'd be interested in a bunch of of 10- 12" bowl blanks, but I'm fairly sure that they won't be getting to the Raleigh area . Jimmy

Thanks The straight sections are going to the saw mill. My step dad's cousin owns a small mill. The rest is going to me. All I have to do is cut it up, and seal it. | |

Just wanted to let everyone know I went and got the wood. I am in the process of cutting it up. If anyone else is interested please let me know. I will try to post pictures tomorrow. Almost all of it is beautiful. | |

I'd be interested in some.
Not particular as to size so whatever would be fine. Big, little, in between.
Thank you~ | |
