Default Rockb's Buckeye, redwood, manzanita burl, ironwood...Part 12


CLOSED............Hi Guys, A few more pieces of wood for you to look over. This is my 12th posting of blanks native to my neck o' the woods, northern end of California......an hour south of Oregon and 3 hours east of the Pacific Ocean. Thank you all very much for your responses.

Would you do me a favor if you buy any of the below burls and please include a zip code in your first note. That would speed up the process a bit. Thanks.

Also, I've added a few larger blocks way down at the bottom of this sale. Guess you could call 'em Other Things We Make Wood. : ) Many pen blanks hidden in them or they might work well for you guys who want to custom cut some wood. There will be some large buckeye, redwood peppermill type wood, and some pretty nice little redwood burl blocks.

I have dampened all the below pieces to show a simulated finish.

Okay, here they come:

Below, HR1, $9.00. Honduran Rosewood, 4 pieces, 3/4 x 3/4 x 5" long. These are actually a little larger than the 3/4, more like 7/8 but some might be a hair or two under 7/8. Hey Guys, I've never worked with rosewood before but that's what it said on the big box of cut-offs at my favorite wood store. I think I've found my newest favorite wood. Love the chatoyent (sp) effect.








Below, HR2, $9.00. Honduran Rosewood, 4 pieces, 3/4 x 3/4 x 5" long. These are actually a little larger than the 3/4, more like 7/8 but some might be a hair or two under 7/8.

SOLD Below, M71, $10.00.
Manzanita natural edge green wood. Dug in Sept. of 08, this wood has partially dried, could have some nice casting shapes in it. It will have some cracks, after all, it is manzanita. No extra charge for any rocks, bark inclusions, dirt or "creepy crawlies" that may be calling it home. M71, $10.00.

Below, M 76, $12.50. Manzanita burl half blanks, 3/4 x 3/4 x 2 1/2 to 4" long. These are pretty nice blanks. There will be a few cracks, etc. but I have separated them from the "casting" category.





Below, Ironwood, Lot 1. Eight numbered pen blanks. Measure 3/4 x 3/4 x 5". You can buy these by number. These are exceptional blanks, little to no cracks, or other problems. I will have some other ironwood to post later in bulk but these do deserve personal/one at a time purchase. $8.each. Number 1,2,3,4,5,7, sold.

Below, MB3, Myrtle burl blanks, $1.50 each. To my regular wood buddies who have seen this sale before, I did sell the original MB3 but have not had time to retake addtional pictures. I do have more nearly identical to these in color and intensity of burl. If you don't have to have pics, I'll sell the others (I think I have about 20 of them) for $1.50 each. Colors shown below, light and dark are actual variations. This wood is fairly hard and dense, really makes a pretty finish. 7/8 x 7/8 x 5 1/4". $1.50 each. ....MB3, $1.50 each



Okay, below find some bigger pieces for the Other Things We Make category. : )

Below, RC3. Curly redwood spindle. $12.50. Measures 2 x 2 x 27".

Below, W1, $15.00. English walnut large turning block. This wood is not dry although the tree it came from had been down for a couple years. Measures about 4 3/4 deep x 10 1/2 x 11". Will fit in a large flat rate box so shipping will be $13.95, add cost of wood and total to anywhere will be $28.95.

Guess that's it guys. BTW, if you have any special requests, size wise or any thing else, I'd be glad to hear 'em. Oh yeah, don't forget the "zip" thing. ; )

Thanks much,
Rocky/rockb
