    Default Wanted - Various blanks 30mm square min

    Hi all,

    I am looking for various species of wood blanks or short boards. I am using them for making small jewelry such as rings and earings so they dont need to be pieces suitable for turning. 30mm square or bigger is good as it gives me an option of which grain to make use of.

    I have come across pen blanks mainly which are too small.

    So far I have only played around with jarrah, iron bark and merbau so anything new would be great. I would prefer pieces with a bit of colour or nice grain.

    PM if you have anything available and we can work out prices.

    Cheers

    Hello Blue,

    Can supply this size in crows ash and NSW scented rosewood if that's a timber that would suit.

    Thanks for all the offers everyone.

    I am getting a pack off Maple Man. I will wait until I get that to see what other species I want to work with.

    Will most likely PM some of you in a couple of weeks time.

    Cheers
