His op mentioned bottle stoppers. I assumed similar size to nominal blank on sticky list. There is no reason a feller who is making an hybrid has to limit himself on thickness though. Easy enough to somewhat center a thinner piece and pour him a blank to size.I don't think you mentioned how thick the pieces need to be but I have some wormy chestnut that would be interesting I think. This is 1" thick and about 5" wide.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking because some of the pieces offered above seem to be much thinner than the standard bottle stopper blanks of 1.5".His op mentioned bottle stoppers.

I have some burl cut offs, oak, Manzanita, Madrone, and tons of Olive. Let me know if you are interested in this kind of stuff and I will put a box together

Yes. Next batch I process will give you a chance at. Might be the weekend.Frank aka Two Feathers
I think I am in line for some Holey-apple? Right? No Hurry at all just trying to keep all my ducks in a row!

Received today, thanks!Hole-y apple stopper spindles shipped to @DirtFarmer
Sounds good. I'll give him a day or two to respond, and then if not it's yours. I've got one other block that's more of a knife handle block (larger and without any of the holes (still got the awesome grain and color)) if you're interested. That would be the last of my stock. I've either turned the rest into boards or sold it off. I think I can fit them all into a sfrb just fyi to both of you.@Armaros Those are beautiful! :drool:
If @DirtFarmer is not interested in making bottle stoppers from them, I "wood" be interested in those and any other Asian ironwood gems you may be willing to part with. Never seen it before.
Thanks, @Armaros ! I'll be around.Sounds good. I'll give him a day or two to respond, and then if not it's yours.

I dunno. Make an offer. I'm heading off to college and I need to clear out my basement or my parents will trash all of my stuff so I'm just trying to sell it all before then.Thanks, @Armaros ! I'll be around.
Out of curiosity, what's the going rate for a package of these beauties?
Have you ever turned American chestnut? I have a few scraps from chestnut rail fence but it has been out in the yard. It would still need dried this is what it looks like. This piece would run 15 dollars shipped. Would be able to cut more and get the shipping to be a more acceptable percentage.Hello all,
I've been working on creating some hybrid blanks, and have plum run out of various woods with checks, divots, gouges, holes, and the like, that allow the resin to "show" through. Anyone selling scraps like this? Any wood that isn't an extreme sensitizer (paduak and cocobolo, especially) welcome.
