    Default Curly Maple

    Does anyone know where I can get curly maple from in Australia? Before I spend big money on delivery from the US/Canada I'd like to know if anyone stocks it.

    Try Perry Ormsby, I know he was quitting stock late last year Ormsby Guitars - Custom Guitars from Perth, Western Australia - Electric Guitars, Handmade Guitars... the worlds best guitar! other than that the phone is the best way to go rather than driving around the known world. Im dipping on OS purchases as I just ordered Ashbury bits and pieces.

    Try a search for mathews timber they are in rooks rd vermont just out of melbourne They stock a lot of exotics and american timbers.
    I am told that sharpening handsaws is a dying art.... this must mean I am an artisan.

    Get your handsaws sharpened properly to the highest possible standard, the only way they should be done, BY HAND, BY ME!!! I only accept perfection in any saw I sharpen.
