Hi guys, a few more pieces of wood to look over. Sort of a sample of my favorite woods. I picked up a beautiful maple root burl stump a while back....I love that stuff. Sorta spendy to buy but sometimes ya can't help yourself. :) A few pieces of it below.

Here they come:

BP24, $18.00 + $4.00 to ship = $22.00 total. Buckeye burl casting wood. Ten pieces measure 3/4 x 3/4 x 5" give or take ....you can see two in the pic that are about 4ish. Misted pic.

BP32, $19.00 + $4.00 to ship = $23.00 total. Buckeye burl pen blanks. Six pieces measure 3/4 x 3/4 x 5". Misted pic. These are pretty nice.

MP4, $25.00 + $4.00 to ship = $29.00 total. Bigleaf maple burl oversized pen blanks. Five pieces in all. Three measure 1 x 1 x 5" and two are a little shorter at 1 x 1 x 4 7/8" long. Maple will have bark inclusions....that's what it does. See one inclusion in these....more could be inside, just sayin'. Misted pic.

MP9, $20.00 + $4.00 to ship = $24.00 total. Bigleaf maple burl pen blanks. Five pieces measure 3/4 x 3/4 x 5" long. I intended to make 7/8" blanks but a few came out on the shy side so I'm calling them a really healthy 3/4". My measuring skills are why I don't turn pens. : ( Maple will have bark inclusions....that's what it does. Misted pic. Two pics...the "eye" side and the "ray" side.

MPC27b, $19.00 + $4.00 to ship = $23.00 total. Bigleaf maple cluster burl pen blanks. I love the color and figure in cluster burl. Six pieces measure 3/4 x 3/4 x 5" long. Misted pic.

RP1, $16.00 + $4.00 to ship = $20.00 total. Redwood burl pen blanks. Six pieces measure 3/4 x 3/4 x 5" long. Note that these do not show intense burl, mainly because of the grain orientation. See the rays running parallel to the "long" side? If they were turned 90 degrees you would see "eyes". That's why the lower price.....still pretty, just different. Misted pic.
