I think one of the management team could be asked to sticky this one till it's done ... it's an awesome offer and we have a LOT of newcomers who wont see it on the second page!

I have a continious supply... I have probably 900 more blanks cut (Yes, I'm bored... not really). No burls - just practice blanks. (and some are nice!).

For postage, they're cheap!

Mark, you could help stock up the AAW symposium for the youth turning.
Thank you for your time and efforts

Hi Charlie:

Send me any links where I can send blanks... I suspect I can send 500 to anywhere useful! The Cabinet shop is simply throwing away this stuff. If I cut it - it's FREE!

Any walnut?

...If you say "Please." :tongue:

ERik831; Brooks2410 & Jimmykoko2:

PM me your addresses.

To others - I cut about 200 more last Saturday - goes very quickly.

So, yes there is a lot left.

I just want to emphasize, these are NOT exibition grade stuff - but all is kiln dried and perfectly fine to refine your skills with.

Some of the last group is Honey Locust, and some Mahagony, and I think cherry.

It's amazing what they throw out - but I understand, they have no use for this. One of the workers takes it home and burns it in his heating system :eek:

Hi Mark...I'd like a couple of boxes the next time that you have them available...hoping to teach my niece to turn here soon, and those sound perfect for the task! Might it be possible to just pay for a medium box instead of two small?

Thanks so much!

Thank you. However, I don't remember the "kids"...other than he was 12.

Maybe the gal who teaches the sight-impaired to turn wants them.....same offer.


Tony ... the "kid" is RolandRanch, I believe, and the lady is sbwertz
