    Default Blackwood Pen Blanks

    G'day Folks

    I have 6 packs of 5 pen blanks, which are 20 x 20 x 135mm.

    The timber is dry and comes from my local area. Scored this stuff from a local farmer who cleared it from his property many many years ago.

    Will swap each pack for 5 blanks or one piece that will make up 5 blanks of whatever timber you have
    Cheers

    How're you off for Tassie Myrtle? (I imagine you'd politely decline swapping for Red River Gum... )
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    We'll see on Friday.

    'Tis an irregular offcut, (from a platter blank) so I'm not sure how many pen blanks it'll provide. [shrug]
