Got this today, the packing peanuts were a little harder than normal and elongated with funny lines all through them but im sure I'll find a use for those silly things.

Thank you @rocky1

Nice...my wife used all my honey up within a month....

Don Ratcliff · Feb 23, 2018

You might wanna wait till he gets some better packing materials to order more. These are hard as a rock and have stains all through them.

I know you're used to all that Curly Hawaiian wood, so I thought I'd send you something different and mundane to play with. However, you're probably the only guy on the island that has any Spalted Red Oak; bequeath someone with a pen, I bet they'll think it unusually different and cool. Gotta get some more of those cut and stabilized, my box of Stabilized Spalted Red Oak blanks is about empty. They weren't quite as nice as I would have liked, but they'll turn some really sweet pens. Pancakes for breakfast in the morning!

You did better that me. The last order I got from Woodturninz had one little roll of Smarties candy..... not that I need candy either!

I went in on an order with @rocky1 and @Mike Hill on some Black Locust Burl pen blanks from @Buga and Rocky did all the foot work re-packing and sending out to us. Well this man packs with some awesomely sweet peanuts and multi-colored blanks for fillers. Received this a while back but just been to busy to post pictures.

Thanks Rocky you BEE the man!!

What are those colorful blanks?

I think those are the moss that rocky cast....

Bigdrowdy1 · Feb 28, 2018

I believe that is correct.

rocky1 · Feb 28, 2018

Yep, that is the Rocky Moss Mellow blanks.

Assorted Hobby Lobby dyed mosses, occasional lychen, found in the dried flower arrangement section at Hobby Lobby. Mix in a little microfine-glitter to grab folks attention. Stuff the mold full, fill with resin. Poke around a little to work bubbles out, and it moves a little dye in the resin. Pretty simple to do.
