I happened upon this stuff out in the woods a few years back, and have been letting it air dry ever since (about 3-4 years IIRC). I think it may be Hackberry, but I'm not really sure. Whatever it is, it has a nice spalt to it. :D

Most of the blanks have soft spots, cracks, or voids, so this wood needs to be stabilized. They would look great as worthless wood blanks. Some of the blanks even have a almost burl like look to them. (don't think it is actually a burl though, just highly figured) They are all cut to 3/4" to 1" thick, and are 5-6" long.

I'm selling them for $0.75 each plus shipping. I'll be using USPS flat rate boxes so I'll use the cheapest one I can for your order.

I also have a couple of pieces that I didn't cut into blanks. They would make for good blanks for small projects. They probably also need to be stabilized. I'm not sure how figured they are on the inside. The end grain looks relatively promising. I'm selling them for $4 each plus shipping. They are about 4.5" thick and 6.5" long give or take a little. I could fit both into a medium sized flat rate box, so shipping would be $12.00

I'd take you up on a SFRB full. Just PM me how many fit, total price and PayPal email please, and thank you. If all would fit into a MFRB, I may be interested in that as well.

After all, I need to use up some Cactus Juice.
