If you have some dry-ish hemp that can be cut down and stabilized, I'd be interested. I've been practicing stabilizing, and I want to give hemp in particular a try.
Looking for hemp, preferably needing to be stabilized/dyed

I have some hempwood that’s not stabilized. What size do you need? And how many?
FYI- it’s hempwood. Not an actual bush or stem.

I am going to use 'em for bottle stoppers or pen blanks, so anything around those sizes would be great. Maybe looking for a dozen or so total? Depends on price per unit, but somewhere between 6 and 12 pieces, I would think.
I can do a 5 1/2” x 5 1/2” x 6” block for $35 plus shipping. I can do about 10 of those.

35 each I am guessing? Can you send some pics so I am sure I know what I am talking about? 
Yeah, give me a few minutes.
Here is the block.
Does it need to be stabilized?

Hi, how much would it be for a pair of them?
they should ship in a medium box. We can do $80 shipped for two
I think for pens and calls it 100% benifits from stabilizing. If leaving the walls thick on a bowl you’d probably be okay not stabilized. But hempwood does have pretty bad tear out.

Okay, send me your details again and I can pay tomorrow afternoon, if that's okay. I'll be away from computers for a bit today and tomorrow.

This is very interesting... Is this the same Hemp as the plant used for textiles, hemp seed and hemp oil? I was under the impression it was a plant, like Flax that dies back every year and sprouts from seed the next, not growing to the size of a tree. Or is this a composite of some kind?
this is a composite. It reminds me of osb plywood. But different
