Here are some blanks that you don't find very often. I have 4 blanks that are Sea Grape for only $3 each plus shipping. If there is an interest , I can cut more. The color of the wood is not red !! The blanks have been exposed to sunlight and turn that beautiful color , the longer the darker !!. They look almost like Pink Ivory . In fact , the large blank at the bottom in the photo is Pink Ivory !! So , turn the pen , sand it and let it be exposed to sunlight to the desired color, then apply finish ( poly , etc. ) Any comments ?

I received these blanks along with a few others last week. The color truly is beautiful and unlike any other wood i've seen. Thank you for the opportunity to purchase these and i'll be sure to share photos of the completed works when they are made.

Would love 20 or so if you have them. If not, I'll just take the rest of what you have. :) Local Floridian. Interested in basically making a bunch of pens for friends using what I consider to be the most beautiful FL wood.
 
I can cut you about 25 of the sea grape. I would also suggest Figured Curly Camphor that is from this area of Florida . Wait till you see a picture
of this beautiful wood !!
 
Joe, glad you mentioned letting it tan in the sun for a while before finishing. I'll have to remember that when I actually do something with the chunk I got from you.
