I know that these two pieces are kind of small but they were to pretty to put in the Chiminea. They are 7/8ths x 1 15/16ths x 7 1/2, 8 1/4 5.00 plus 5.35 shipping.

Would make NICE grip stocks!:yes:

That is what I was thinking, are they big enough?

Would work for 1911, which is all I know how to make at this point...:i_dunno:

Can you resaw them for me..?

p
Sure. I would probably use my table saw.
I will get on line if it doesn't work out with the others.

Thanks P, I sent you a PM.
David I will keep looking, if I find something during the day I will try and post later in the afternoon. Hopefully I can put something up on a regular, semi-regular basis. I am still figuring out the ins and outs of the FLB shipping.

Brian,

The easy way to learn is to get the 5 various sizes of FRBs and just stuff 'em full a few times with various blocks. Pretty soon you'll be able to kind of know what will work and what won't.

There's two large flat rates, two medium flats, and one small. The small is not a very good value for wood IMHO unless it's real high dollar wood. I do not care for the "shoe box" medium flat much either but sometimes it works perfect for certain things.

You can order free boxes here.

Also don't forget the flat rate priority envelope. You can often get a board in there that would never fit inside a small FRB and it costs the same price. Also if you're going to be shipping a lot (and you are) then get a printer and open a click-n-ship account to print labels online. You get a discount for doing this and never have to stand in line at the post office either. You can also arrange daily pickups and your mail person will pick up your packages right at your shop.

I use C-n-S for printing labels for trades where no money has exchanged. But for sales you can print your USPS (or UPS which I do not use FEDEX is much better) labels right from your PP account. I save lots of money yearly by printing labels in my shop.

Hope this isn't a hijack . . .

Thanks Kevin!

I do have accounts at all of the shippers from when I was shipping furniture. I am getting back up to speed on all of this, mini-van speed not GTO speed. I agree about Fed-ex.
