    Default Mulga and NG Rosewood pen blanks

    hi all,

    i'm on the hunt for Mulga and NG Rosewood (or any other types of rosewood) pen blanks. looking for anywhere between 20x20mm and 25x25mm.

    does anyone know where i can get hold of these, preferably in the Brisbane area?

    There's a shiny new penny in it for anyone that can help (not really)

    I have mulga logs, cocobolo (Rosewood from Mexico) pen blanks, NSW Rosewood (and some other Rosewoods) planks and blocks I've bought around the place. 25x25 are very big blanks, so you would be waisting a lot of wood to make the pen. Most of my big pen blanks are only 19x19.

    How many are you after?

    Reece ! I have some NG rosewood, but its not very figured, very ordinary in fact, I could let you have about ten or so if that would help not sure on sizes though at the moment ,certainly large enough for any pen you may want to make , Cheers John, I am near Beenleigh .
    G'day all !Enjoy your stay !!!

    It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

    i'm after about 10 of each at this point, although 15 wouldn't hurt. cocobolo would be great too. i'll send you a PM when i have time along with anyone else that has responded.

    Thanks everyone.
