I have 10 chrome Jr. Gent 1 convertibles that can be assembled as either a fP or RB. To convert you have to change the whole front end and I would be prone to glue the RB spring in so it wouldn't get lost. I'd like to trade for blanks my pref is nice burls of about any color - stablized. I would put the value of the kits at about $8.00. They will have a cartrige and RB refill. All or none in this trade each side pays shipping I'll ship SFRB.
PM your offer...indicate interest here.

I have some stabilized spalted white elm that has some really good figure to it. If you are interested I can dig them out and send you a scan of some of them.
 
Heres a few of the elm and also a couple of spalted sweetgum to look at. The are 1 inch by a shade over 5 inches. I also have several of the elm boards to cut and stabilize yet, one has pink bands on it. I also have a few long sticks of Honduran rosewood burl, unstabilized. Stuff is so dense it doesn't need it. How many blanks would you deem suitable for the trade?

How does a flat rate box full sound? I think it will hold 20 blanks, if not I'll find a box big enough for the 20. I'm in the process of stabilizing the rest of the wood and will have them done in a few days.

OK Done deal.

PM sent. You want just the ash or some of the other woods mixed in?
Ash? this is the first time you mentioned ash. I thought we were talking about things you pictured?

Sorry, elm. I get the two crossed. Do you want a mix or all one variety? If you want some sweetgum i can pull out some of the better blanks i have stored and stabilize them too. I can send you a scan of the complete batch when I'm done..

Let me know if you still need someone to stabilize those blanks you posted about elsewhere.
 
I have them all done. Couldn't find a way to attach a picture in PM so this will do. I'll have a couple of extra challenge pieces in the box too just for fun. Now if I can get this ready to mail before Snowmageddon II hits.
