Technically, I was visiting a friend, but how could I just drive by without stopping? I got out of there under $100, so that's quite a victory. Granted, I only had an hour to roam the warehouse before they closed. I scored some pretty nice stuff, but that Arg. Lignum Vitae "pen blank"... wow, that's a loooong blank. It was actually listed as a 3/4 x 36" pen blank on the receipt.
You can never go wrong with Olive and these blanks are exceptional. I always pick out a couple "ugly duckling" blanks and this time they were Padauk. Hopefully some interesting patterns will show up in those. One of the Chechen pieces has some wormholes and spalting, too. The Tamboti smells absolutely amazing, but I'm glad I researched it before doing anything with it. The dust can be extreeeemely nasty!
