I purchased this beautiful Cherry 6 1/2 years ago on this forum from Larry Burgin . Anyone remember him ? The dimensions are still on the wood. All pieces are the same except the crotch piece . I cut one piece from it for a pen blank. There is 6 board feet of cherry her . So , I think $12 /bf is a good price for this quality wood . I just paid $13.5 /bf from Cook Woods( on sale )that had very little curl. So , my price is $70 plus shipping IMG_1898.JPG

I met Larry at Hearne Hardwoods. He was very nice and a great part of WB. He just was not up for all the back and forth that some of us are guilty of. They a nice looking. Look like they were cut for a USPS large gameboard box. Most post offices no longer have them. Good price too Joe.

Yes they were cut to fit a Large Flat Rate Box Gameboard . The post office no longer makes the box , but will accept them at the LFRB rate.

I remember Larry well. Bought quite a bit of wood from him, even stopped by his home once in my travels. Your offer has real quality wood! Chuck

Larry was a great guy. Wish he was still here. He had a heck of a stash. When I went up and met him, I could have brought back a truckload if my wallet was a little thicker.

I bought that same bundle from Larry. It was to make a 3-d end grain cutting board. Never got around to it! Still have the full box out there somewhere!
