IMG_0207.webp IMG_0206.webp Tony I finally got to it except of course I grabbed the wrong box. It is only 13" long, I have 4 pieces at 17" but that is about my longest. These are all bookmatched sets which I'm pretty sure you don't care about but that is how I cut them. If I can squeeze in more time I will cut off the live edge bits and see what else I can squeeze in, I could also go back to the post office and get the longer box if you want those 4. Any way I ramble.

I would be interested in a piece of Mesquite 45" long x 1" thick or there about x 2" wide.

Les, the pics showed up fine. That works for me, I would prefer the full length if possible. Do you want the Mesquite 45" long or cut where it would fit in a LFRB? Tony

45" I will pay extra for shipping. I want to cut it into strips for reinforcment rings inside of a shell. Because it is so stable I think I might get away with doing something I really shouldn't. I will pick up a "proper" game box tomorrow and get some new pics up. I'm going to have to ask for one I didn't see anything longer than these. I'll give you all my longest stuff. What I do takes smaller pieces and I can get more anyway.
 
Okay cool. I'll try to get some cut and post pics ASAP, but it's been an insane week at my job, so it might be Saturday before I get a chance. The game boxes go quick and they're not real quick to put more out. Tony
 
Thanks Les, neither am I. Tony
 
IMG_20150711_085837_hdr.webp IMG_20150711_085412_hdr.webp Les, how's this one? It's 7" x 50" x 3/4". I can rip it for you if you need. It has a crack at each end of about 5", but with the extra length and the 2" widths you need I think it would be okay. What say you? IMG_20150711_085412_hdr.webp

Absolutely it would work.I can rip it myself. I need to take more pics I got a game box so you are getting longer pieces than I showed earlier.

Threw in a piece of Jamiancan Dogwood on the far left if that is alright. If not I can add 1 or 2 more shorter Mango pieces.
 
If the Dogwood is a hardwood that's fine, I'm not familiar with it. PM me your address and I'll get it shipped early next week. Let me see what shipping is and we can hammer that out. Whatever the difference between it and a LFRB is cool with me. Do you want me to trim the ends or do anything with it before I ship? Tony

I'm not picky as long as it is 45" or longer. The Jamaican Dogwood is a very hardwood.

On second thought leave it at the present length. That is big enough I might squeeze a whole drum with reinforcement rings out of it.

glad to hear it! I haven't forgotten about that cherry, just haven't had a chance to get out and look. Tony
