I am again in search of deep red bloodwood. If you have any or have an unusual source, please let me know. I have been to the usual Rockler, woodcraft and various online penturning sources, but theirs is light reds best. This worked last time and I bought some nice pieces.

Thanks in advance!

What size? How much?
I have lots of deep, deep red bloodwood.
Got a board that's about 16" X 12' long too.

Gary, if you are going to cut any of that up for pen blanks for Mark, I would be interested in a few of them as well.

Hey Gary before you cut the board up, take a photo or 2 so I can droll on my keyboard a bit. Thanks. Not sure what is more impressive the 16" wide or the 12 foot long.:biggrin:

This bloodwood cigar is probably a tad lighter than most of the BW I have.
I'll photograph the board John.

Campzeke, how many blanks are you interested in?

I'm not going to cut the big board up completely.
I expect Mark is looking for box material and I can spare some of it for that.

hello Gary

Have to say my friend that is impressive. To find a board that wide, that straight, that good color, that long is impressive. There is some money there. Mighty lucky. Hope there is many fine projects in there. Good luck and thanks for showing.

Bloodwood Blanks

I just got mine from Gary yesterday and they are beautiful. I could not wait so I turned one today and will get a picture posted later on.
