Kevin said:Okay you wood concubines, Dean and I chewed the phone line up this morning and hammered out a tentative agreement, close enough to turn him loose on y'all.
The bad news is I lied to y'all and traded for every last shred of his olive wood, curly gnarly redwood, Myrtle burl, spalted curly quilted fiddlback maple burl, and also all of his black locust burl.
The GOOD news is, and sit down because this is really great news, since I feel so bad about not leaving any olive, I agreed not to trade for any of his clear, straight-grained pine, spruce, or fir. That stuff doesn't have any runout at all. Probably make the best wall studs of all time.
So y'all enjoy.
