I had to rummage around in the basement to find some manzanita for Larry, and I found these lying around. If you can use them, speak up.

The leopardwood is a squared off blank. The rest are cutoffs.

If you haven't fooled around with canxan before, it pops like a dream when finished. But it's also kind of unpredictable and check-y, and I bet at least one or two of the smaller, sapwood-heavy pieces will explode randomly. So maybe best for one person to take all of those.

Waht is the size of that Canaxan in the middle there? I am very interested in that piece and the one cutoff there if it is 1.25 or wider(the one in top of first pic and bottom of second!)

I will pull measurements later today and post. Should've thought to do that.

On the trade front...to me, a fun and fair trade might involve cutoffs or scraps of any type of American hardwood I can't easily find at a lumberyard (ie, I have plenty of flat stock).
 
I have plenty of wood so I could certainly work something out for those two pieces if they will work for me!

So...

The canxan cap is irregular but basically 7.25 X .75 to 1 X 1.75.

The cancan triangle is 5.5 X 1.75 X 1 (bottom) to 2 (top).

The rectangular canxan is 10.5 X 1.75 X 1.

The canxan diamond is 9.25 (tip to tip) X 8 X 1.75ish (2 Max)

The leopardwood is 12 X 1.5 X 1.5.

The lignum vitae is 3.875 to 4.5 X 4.25 X 3.125.
 
Thanks for the info!, I was hoping for 1.5sq or close to it so ill have to pass.
