PS. I received wood already packaged in 10 pack units as here:

It simplifies my job.
Wood is looking good in my opinion. But please let me know what do you think about it.
The reason for this is... Well I guess I got something like "pre-seniority" moment and place the order for everybody who was in the list. Guess what, I was not in that list. So... it looks like I need to organize another GB for bog oak, and that time I will put myself first in the list.

That stinks, if you haven't actually shipped the wood but just prepped labels I'm happy to split mine with you, don't need but 4-5 blanks anyway. Let me know.

Stepan.......
I thought you had enough people already say they wanted to get some for a second box? Didn't you get the order doubled when you placed it?

The pictures look good. Can hardly wait for mine to arrive. Christmas gifts need to be made. I need to try a new pen kit.

Stepan, I missed this group buy because I didn't have funds at the time. Since you forgot yourself and missed out, and are thinking of doing another group buy, I'll keep my eyes out for it as I would be interested in joining it. Thanks!

Matthew...send me your address via PM and I will send you a couple. A friend of Mack C. is a friend of mine! I haven't received them yet, but I am sure I will shortly.

You do not have to keep an eye, coz I let you know.

Tony, thank you for the kind and generous offer! I do still have a couple Bog Oak blanks left in my stash, and since I don't turn it often, it will be enough for me until the next group buy, which I'm already setting aside funds for. My first couple Bog Oak blanks I got were a gift from Mark James, and they got me hooked on turning it!

Thank you. I just received mine today. I never saw anything like that. I like the C dating document.

Mine arrived also today. Thank you Stepan for putting this together.
Beautiful looking blanks.

Now could someone explain what the paper is telling us?
I haven't a clue to what it is saying or how to read it.

I got mine! Beautiful wood! I really like the radiocarbon data sheet included with the wood!

Based on what I found, there is a 94.5% probability this tree fell in the bog 410 years before Christ!

To get a gist of what the paper tells you, visit: http://anthro140.wikispaces.com/file/view/Reading+Radiocarbon+Dates.pdf

It is by no means a dissertation, but it gives some good hints!

Thanks, VotTak!
