Sorry for any confusion. Aside for Pine burl and Turkish Walnut, these are not lots. I have anywhere from 25-100 of very similar blanks. I hand select them so what what you see in the photos will be equal to or better than you see.

Sorry for any confusion.

I'm new to the IAP so why not start with a IAP only sale!! Buy 4 blanks and get one more free!!! Yes, I will mix and match if you request. 100% money back including shipping if you are not happy with any of my blanks.
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>
#1 Premium Lace Redwood Burl. Lots of tight burl eyes and figure. I've turned several of these myself and they look great with a CA or other high-gloss finish. 5 1/8"x7/8" $4.50 each.
<o:p></o:p>
#2 Pine Burl. I've never seen anything like this in Pine before. The blanks are graded A, B, C, or D. A grade show good pin on both sides. B grade, good on one side and a little less on the other. C and D grades show the least amount of pin. 5 1/8"x 3/4" 4 lots, $20 each.
<o:p></o:p>
#3 Very Rare English Elm Burl. A very beautiful wood with nice burl in interesting grain. Pens from the mixed heartwood/sapwood or all sapwood blanks are for sure my favorite and my top seller. CA filling will need to be done as the blank is being turned but the results are well worth it. I can send you instructions on how I turn these blanks. 2 sizes, 5 1/8"x3/4" $5 and 5 1/8" $6 each.
<o:p></o:p>
#4 Pomelle Red Elm. The photos just don't do this wood justice. The grain is very tight and swirly. They also have burl like figure. Much easier to turn than the English Elm. Some minor filling may be needed. 5 1/8"x13/16" $4 each.
<o:p></o:p>
#5 Extreme Figured Blue Gum Eucalyptus. The photo is a little over exposed, the wood is more white than it appears. Intense wavy fiddleback that shows very well. Very dense and take a high polish. This wood was extremely difficult to dry. It would warp, twist and check like crazy. I end up losing about 90% just to get clean pen blanks but the pens end up beautiful. 2 sizes, 5"x3/4" $3.75 and 5"x a hair under 7/8" $4
<o:p></o:p>
#6 Figured Pink Eucalyptus. More pink than the photo shows. Another one of my top selling pens. Very dense and take a high polish. 5 1/8"x7/8" $3.50 each.
<o:p></o:p>
#7 Maple Burl. Lots of burl eyes and figure. The blank on the far left should not be in the photo as it a lower quality. 5 1/8"x7/8" $4 each. Nearly out of stock.
<o:p></o:p>
#8 Flame Redwood Burl. Very large eyes for Redwood burl that in many of the blanks look like flames. I really like the look of these blank and look forward to turning one soon. 5"x7/8" $4.25 each.
<o:p></o:p>
#9 Extreme Figured Bastogne Walnut. This wood looks like exhibition grade Koa but with better color. Figure shows on all sides unlike normal curl. The center blank is all sapwood, the others are heartwood. 5"x13/16" $4.50 each.
<o:p></o:p>
#10 Exhibition Grade Turkish Walnut. Very beautiful and dense blanks. Some will have crotch figure and some are diagonal cut. The photo was taken without a wetting agent, the figure and color will show much better with a finish is applied. I have a total of 3 nearly identical lots of this wood. This lot is 3/4"x5 1/8". The other 2 lots are closer to 7/8". $45 per lot.
<o:p></o:p>
#11 Well I'm out of photos but if you would like to see some photos of my other pen and stopper blanks, send me a PM or Email.
<o:p></o:p>
Some blanks I have sanded and misted with alcohol so you can better see the figure and give you a better idea how a finished pen may look like.

I ship at cost, Priority mail small flat rate box or larger flat rate box if needed.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Please let me know if you have any questions.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Thanks, Randy.<o:p></o:p>

Sorry for any confusion. I'm new to this site and may not know how things work. I'm sorry for any confusion. The only lots I have are for the Pine burl and Turkish Walnut. All other blanks, #1-#9 are a sample of what you should expect to receive, if not better. I stand behind the photos and hand select the blanks to make sure you will be happy. If the blanks are of a lower quality, they will not be shipped.

Lucky2 and Mick. Since I took the photos today, I can fill you orders exactly as seen. If you want more, you can expect the same quality or better. Sorry for any confusion. Please PM me.

I received a PM from him and paid through Pay-pal. I haven't heard from him, didn't receive the blanks nor a reply to the PMs I sent asking if there was a problem. I have opened a dispute through Pay-Pal.

i have sent 2 Pms after posting in the add with still no reply. Must be out of town or having some kind of issue. I have not yet recieved Pay pal and amount confirm so not the end of the world for me, they would be nice to get still though.

I do hope all is well with him.

I hate to hear this. I received mine in a timely manner, and the blanks are nice. He even sent me a few more freebies just to fill up the box. Hopefully it's just a problem with his e-mail or something similar.

I'm in the same boat, I haven't recieved my blanks yet, but I did make payment on the 27th of Aug. I haven't laid a claim in with Pay-Pal yet, because I trust Randy plus he had to ship them to Canada and it takes longer to get here. So it takes a little longer to start a claim, that is if one ever needs to be started.

I'm in the same boat here. Payment sent two weeks ago and no word or blanks. I doubt it's shipping time also, as I live about 2 hours from his posted location. Darn... I was looking forward to these blanks, so I hope all is ok and everyone gets their blanks here!
