UPDATE: What is left I am out of the amboyna shorts but I have
5 prime grade all heartwood amboyna for 25 bucks
I have five prime grade amboyna burl slightly smaller than 3/4 like 11/16th great figure 15 bucks
#2 grade chechen for 2.00 each See picture below.
lots of brown mallee 2.00 each for prime grade for 10 or more. Brown mallee shorts 3-4 inches many with sapwood for 1.00 each
Redwood and maple burl also 1.50 each for prime grade.
It is snowing like crazy up here which is rare so no school means I get a chance to get into the shop and thin out my pen blanks. I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel as I clear out the majority of my pen blanks. All the wood I have comes with a money back gaurentee. Most of what I have left is from my private stash so you know it is good stuff. I have prime grade redwood -1.50 each, maple 1.50 each and much more. I also have lots of bottle stoppers buckeye maple, amboyna, ect. If you are serious and need some blanks let me know.

SOLD I have two groups (A and B) of 6 amboyna burls, both groups have a mix of heart and sapwood some are 90% sapwood some 90% heartwood. Some of the sapwood might have a shallow crack but nothing a little CA won't fix. These blanks go for about 8-11 bucks each on ebay but I will offer them up for 5 bucks each so 30 bucks each group or both for 50 bucks. I have blanks that are cut from the same burl with heart and sapwood that are 3-4+ inches long 10 blanks for 20 bucks.

I have a group of 5 all heartwood amboyna that would be prime grade. Price is 25 bucks.

SOME BOX ELDER LEFT I also have some prime grade box elder burl. Some have a shallow crack or dark knot but it is super blond tight figure. The burl ranges in size from slightly under 3/4 x 3, 1 x 1 x 4, and 3/4 x 5. Let me know what you need but to give you an idea a 3/4 x 5 piece would be about 2.00. The more you buy the better the deal. This stuff is great dyed and stabilized and awesome double dyed and stabilized.

SOLD HAVE UNSTABILIZED LEFT I have a group of prime grade stabilized buckeye burl it is hard to get a clean all burled sample of buckeye so only the best gets stabilized. These stabilized blanks don't need a finish because the finish is in the wood takes an amazing polish. 25 bucks

BLOCKS ARE SOLD BLANKS LEFT you can email me at isaacrapelje@hotmail.com and I can send pictures of the blanks I have three blocks of HRB the smallest block #1 is roughly 1 3/4 x 1 3/4 x 8.25 the others are like 10 inches long. They will all fit in a small flat rate box if I cut them down to 8.5. You should be able to get 4 full blanks and 4 shorter blanks about 3.5 inches or longer from each block. Price is 15 bucks per block. Perfect for 3-4 bottle stoppers or Christmas ornaments also. I have a group of honduran rosewood burl not prime grade but 14 full blanks and 4 shorts with lots of swirls and color change will make great pens. Cut from the same burl as above. 15 bucks.

1 x 1 x 4 blanks SOLD but have 3/4 x 5 blanks left for 4.5 each. I have a group of 6 afzelia burl often called golden amboyna. These are roughly 1 inch square times 4+ inches in length. 15 bucks
I also have prime grade afzelia burl 3/4 x 5 blanks for 4.50 each, just like amboyna only tanish brown color.

RIGHT HALF SOLD, LEFT HALF AVAILABLE I have a group of amboyna burl, some are slightly under 3/4 like 11/16 and some have a natural edge corner but lots of great prime grade blanks. Price is 30 bucks. or half for 15.

SOLD BUT HAVE MORE I have two groups (5 each) of # 2 grade chechen burl they are separated by the tan colored blank #, this is a very rare, dark, heavy burl from central america. 8 bucks per group of 5 right or left or 15 bucks for all. Prime grade all burl blanks are 6.00 each.

I have a bunch of prime grade red mallee burl some have cream sapwood some red heartwood, some have both heart and sapwood all dense burl from australia much like amboyna but for about half the price. Most are going to be dark red like the ones on the left. 3.50 each.

I have a bunch of prime grade brown mallee burl which has the most dense burl eyes of any burl I have. Some have brown heartwood, some cream sapwood, some both. Some natural edge is common. I have them from 3/4 x 5 to 1 x 1 x 6 and some that are 3/4 x 4+ for about half price. 3.00 each

I have prime grade amboyna burl cut from veneer quality burls. 100% burl some with big eyes some with smaller eyes. 3/4 blanks are 6.50 each and 7/8 x 6 are 9.00 each

blanks

Sorry the amboyna for 5 for 25 are all gone and so are the hrb. I do have
Group 2a and 2b left due to a non payment. You can see them here under the completed classifieds. I held the blanks for almost two weeks for payment and then have had no response from pms and emails so they are avialable.
