@Billy has dibs

All but the Tried & True are new unused/unopened and purchased within the last year. T&T has been dipped twice with a small cotton patch, you’d never know it if not told. Angelus is alcohol, Keda is water or alcohol based, they both work very well on wood. Trade for wood to make 5.75 x 2.5” blanks that compliments the last pic.

I have this category tabbed as watched but never get notifications, I just saw your post John, too bad it’s ended cuz your recent posts of dyed wood inspired me to get into myself. Been using Keda dyes and just got Chestnut Spirit Stains which are amazing. Would’ve liked to have worked out a deal for what you got posted, maybe next time. Take care man, hope all is well.

Hey Billy, closed it because of a perceived no interest. Yours if you want them, what you got for trade?

Hi John, I have curly maple that will meet your dimensions if you cut it down to size, this is the only piece I have turned right now at 5 3/4 by 2 5/8ths. And here’s a block at 6” by 5.5”. Also have some curly rainbow poplar if interested. Moisture meter is MIA at the moment but I’ve turned loads of this curly with next to no checking or cracking and is down to 12% mc at last reading. Would any of this be suitable. If you want the blanks cut to 6”x2.75” I can do that too. Oh, and I have this spalted curly ambrosia maple but is still quite green. Of these options and your requirements what would you consider a fair trade if interested?

Like the Spalted maple, how green is it and is it sealed? Can you please post a few more pics showing it in detail? Retail paid for everything shown is $108, would consider a fair trade to be similar value.
