Irish bog oak form

[wayneis]

Does anyone have a copy of the carbon dating form that shows the age of the Irish Bog Oak that you could email me?

I just include a write-up that describes Irish Bog woods (Pine, Oak and Yew). I'll have to find it again, but the info I gleaned is from a site about the bogs from the Irish gov. I also try to get as much info as possible from my supplier regarding the source.

The generic carbon dating form would be rather deceptive in my opinion as unless you had the specific log dated, it could be completely inaccurate.

Hummm, would be nice to get a hold of some Irish Bog pine, yew and oak for bowls.

good luck with the pine and yew, I haven't been able to find even small pieces. Larger cowl sized pieces of the oak are few and far between too.

Wayne,

I think I can locate one of the carbon dating forms. I'll send it with the check.
