    I know this won't help much, but I'd be interested in maybe 1 or 2 if they did make their way down this direction.

    There's a bloke in near Westwood that had a sign up selling Rosewood posts for years - don't know if he's still doing it. Most of the fencing contractors cut their own posts but if you got onto one of them I'm sure they would sell some. (I don't have any phone numbers for them)

    You still looking for some for pen blanks Neil?

    Cut one down a few weeks ago and can spare a bit for blanks, still need a bit of drying though.

    Cheers

    Thanks for the offer, but I have too many pen blanks already I haven't used. I use the Inland Rosewood mainly for trinket boxes, finials and legs on other items in lieu of Ebony.

    Cheers
