Actually just putting out feelers for a non-WB acquaintance. He's searching 4" sq x 12"+ Osage orange turning blocks - I'm not sure how many, but more than just a few I think. Does any one have some that big?
 
Notice he said an acquaintance and not a friend.

I consider myself Henry's friend - at least until he shoots his canon at me from his pirate ship.

It's true, I only take potshots at friends. And Sillissippi union thugs.

3" square is the largest I have in stock. I do have a few large Osage logs in the log yard currently and have had requests for larger blanks. Let me know how many you think you will need and I will see if I thought the log would yield 4" x 4" in a clean blank.

Have you tried to find it by looking for it as fence post?

That was my thought as well. This guy makes (way) oversized duck calls, so part of the issue is finding this size without cracks. Hedge is one that often cracks badly when drying if not well-managed.

Eric is planning to join and will speak up for his needs.
 
A friend of mine has a piece that I believe is about 4x4x36". I'm away from home for another week but I'll call him to confirm the size and see if he wants to sell it.
