Manzanita (moved to classifieds)

[Nolan]

I live in northern California and was on a job site the other day and gathered up a little Manzanita (enough for a couple blanks). I then came home did a search and noticed a little talk about it, but not alot. Thought I would throw it out there to see if there was much interest in it. If so I can go up and harvest some to spread around to the members.

If the price is right, I'd love to get some Nolan. IIRC, it's mostly the roots that you see people doing stuff with, rather than the wood itself.

I love manzanita root burl...haven't tried the regular wood but I think it will be interesting. I too am interested..let me know how much []

 

[Nolan]

I'm sorry it would be the burl or limb wood if you want. And as far as price mostly to just cover cost of shipping and a little (or trade) so I can keep getting new types of wood to work with. Thanks to some super members I have gotten a taste of some really nice wood and I think I may be developing a "problem"[][]

If you want trade, I am game...by the box full of the USPS flat rate box will be ideal.

Nolan,
I'd be interested too. I'm also in Northern California, but haven't had a chance to get any manzanita. I definitely want to try it though.

I think I still have some manzanita that I cut up a while back. it is waxed and not fully dry. It is the heart wood though and pretty straight grained. It is actually a nice color, but plain.

I'd be up for a trade for manzanita also.

 

[alamocdc]

I'm game for a trade. Got any pics of it?

 

[JimGo]

A trade sounds good to me, too, though I don't quite have the inventory Dario has! Alternatively, I'd be happy to pay for some.

 

[Dario]

Jim,

Definitely won't hog the lot, just want to get as much from the shipping. IF the supply is limited, please do the smaller orders first. I can take the leftover. If there is none left afterwards I am fine too...I actually have lots of manzanita burl, just want to test the regular stuff [].

 

[JimGo]

Dario, sorry, I wasn't implying that you WOULD hog the lot. I simply meant that I would probably have difficulty filling a flat-rate box (at least one of the big ones), especially if it was all wood. From what I've seen, that shouldn't be a problem for you!

Sorry for any misunderstanding!

 

[Dario]

Jim,

I apologize too...my reply may sound bad LOL...but like you, nothing is implied. Just really want to get as much for the same (shipping) cost anyway.

You are right about the box of wood though, I do have more than I can handle right now and I am still buying/collecting!!! (I need help) [B)][V][:0][xx(]

 

[airrat]

Dario I can help you. Just pack up what you feel is good and send it my way. I can "store" it here for you. [}][][]

 

[airrat]

Nolan I would be interested any pictures yet?

 

[Nolan]

To all that replied---------- This is good I will now cut/gather a bunch since there seems to be some interest! I only cut a little the other day just to look at it. I will now start getting as much as need be. I sell my trusses almost exclusively to contractors we are building in the foothills and they just push it in a pill and burn it. So the should be lots to go around. I will post some pics as soon as I get enoungh together.

Ok here is a little of the Manzanita more to come!! Can sell in slab form like this or cut into blanks. Blanks will have some inclusions and cracks. Mostly looking to trade for other blanks but will sell if you dont have stuff to trade. I am interested in other burls, spalted, PR or the like, mostly stuff not the "everyday wood". Let me know first come first serve. I will get this as fast as possible. Been lots of rain so getting this has been slow as I am not delivering lots of jobs right now (my source of wood). Each piece aprox 9" by 4" at biggest points.
