Hello All,

I am new to the list, I am in the middle of the states, Missouri to be exact, tornado alley.

I turn all matter of items and have had some success in selling pens at local craft fairs. I absolutely love the woods you guys have available for turning.

I have traded and bought wood from many sources and would like to trade for 10 to 20 pen blanks in the 19mm x 127mm long range.

If interested I have.

Oliepod burl, Amboyna burl, Makore, Imbuia, Black cherry burl
Spalted curly box elder, Spalted persimmon, Bocote(angle cut, nice)
Zebra(angle cut), Redwood burl, Buckeye burl

I am interested in.

Rose myrtle burl, White top burl, Yellow box burl, Vasticola burl
Effusia mallee burl, Grey Box burl, Lace sheoak, Ringed gidgee

Or any other highly figured hard wood available.

Regards, Steve (In the stormy midwest!)

Also you need to be aware that anything with spalting, bark, borer holes and inclusions will most likely end up been burnt by customs here, so you must be careful with what you will send here
