Can u send a pic and or list of what's in it , and value of said set.
I got the set with a lathe that I bought. I already had tools so didn't need them so just tucked them away. Not sure of the value maybe $25.00.

I'll take em . so most of my redwood burl stock is green but I do have dry curly and OG root that has a nice twist to it , it's about 7" in diameter.
Post some pics of what you have.

If you look at my first post burl for bowl gouges I still have the first two burls from that post other than that I have curly like in the pic below . @Lou Currier
Wow Lou! Is that the classic 8 PC wood turning high grade quality chisel set with the original packaging? I've only seen those in high grade quality shops but never have I been so lucky as to see one for realz! You can't be giving that amazing collection of Chi-mericana away for a single og burl. Lou, you shouldn't even trade that beautiful collection for 2 redwood burls.
If someone doesn't offer you at least 3 museum grade blanks you should put that back inside the safety deposit box inside the safe behind bars in a hidden room guarded by fluffy. No sirie Bob, that there is some mighty fine hardware and a man that got ahold of those tools would instantly become a lathe master and make tons of money...
I'll pm my address, I want that last one, you can have the other 2... shhhhh
@Don Ratcliff I didn't realize that it was such a good set...I should hold out!
Really didn't know anything about them except that they came with a lathe I bought and I tossed them on a shelf.

I cut a block yesterday. I'll send pics when I get off work. The piece is about 10×10×5
I've got a few Thompson gouges that have been fairly well used. You'd need to make your own handles for them, but that's part of the fun. Depending on how you sharpen them, they'll give you a good bit of turning before they're used up.
Two 1/2" 10V bowl gouges and one 3/8" Jimmy Clewes 10V gouge.

You really did cut the first 6" off your ruler...
