I had a neighbor trim up his chinaberry tree and I snagged most of the limbs over 1 inch thick. I dont have a lathe and therefore couldnt make a pen if I wanted to. What size do ya need for a pen blank? I have pleny and would be willing to cut them to size for shipping...... In return I would like a nice pen. I also have one piece thats large enough for a bowl blank. I am open for all offers.
**ENDED**chinaberry for pen blanks?

i tried to post pics but it wont let me
Sent you a pm. Most pen guys want 3/4" square x 5". I usually try to get 1" square x 5"-6" but that is just so I can use them for stuff other than pens. Most folks would take whatever size you are offering a resaw once they get it especially if you are giving it away & using your time to box up & ship out for small trade.

sounds like your image is too large. Use one of the online picture edit tools & make it smaller. Then try again.
