Olive

[Maverick]

Looking for some olive at least 1 1/2” square by 7” spindle blank or something close for a backscratcher handle for my wife. Thanks

@Nubsnstubs posted some today.

Thanks Tony, I forgot I saw that earlier today. I will see how dry they are.

I will get with the guy that gave them to me to find out how long he's had them. I'll have an answer tomorrow evening. ............. Jerry (in Tucson)

John, if what Jerry has doesn’t work for ya time drying wise, I’ve got a piece a little over 10” long x 1.5” square . Could cut what you need from it and be in First Class Mail category.
I’ve had this for at least 7 years, wax coated, probably got from Woodcraft.

Thanks Tim, I have been working with Jerry in another thread, but I like options and might consider getting both. Let me know what yours would run me with shipping cost.

 

[TimR]

PM sent. Yea, absolutely work with Jerry if you can, he’s always got nice goodies .

I've got kiln dry russian olive in those sizes, probably.

 

[Maverick]

Thanks Matt, I think I have what I need for now between what I got from Tim and Jerry, but will keep you in mind if I decide I need some more.

 

[TimR]

So it finally made it?

 

[Maverick]

Not yet. Still showing in transit and no longer gives a delivery date. Hopefully shows up in the next day or two.

 

[TimR]

Keep me posted!

 

[Maverick]

Will do. Did you see what I wrote in the What’s In The Mail Thread yesterday?

 

[TimR]

Oh right, had to divert to Raleigh for dem special long range ponies!

 

[Maverick]

Yep, but after being on the trail for the last 160 years, I think they are done tuckered out.

 

[TimR]

Woohoo! It looks like them ponies, exhausted that they were, finally made it to your front porch!

 

[Maverick]

Yes they did. Thank you sir. Now to get it turned.
