I'm going to divide these up into small flat rate boxes. Each box will contain full size 5-1/4" x 3/4+ x 3/4+ blanks and shorts. The shorts can be used for many single tube pens like diamond knurl/Sierra and 30 caliber bolt action pens. You can use two shorts to make a two tube pen too.

If you are really new to pen turning then send me an email (not a reply to this post). When they are gone…. They are gone.
Shipping is about $8.50. They are ready to ship.

I guess I'll have at least five and possibly more boxes filled with an assortment of the blanks shown in the photo. They include padauk, maple, purpleheart, cherry, African mahogany and American black walnut.

There is discussion that some seasoned pen turners may cover the shipping costs.

If the $8.50 is a problem send me a PM and perhaps the blanks will be FREE and shipping FREE TOO

There is absolutely nothing wrong with asking the recipients of free blanks to cover the shipping costs, especially when offering a number of boxes. Shipping costs can add up in a hurry, and $8.50 for a small flat rate box of blanks is quite a bargain.

Sometimes people cover shipping in their free offers, sometimes not. The choice is yours. I am always happy to see members make blanks available to our new members, especially new turners. Thanks for doing this.
