I haven't made any pens in at least three, maybe four years, so it's time to clear out my blanks. Unless otherwise stated, all the regular size blanks, up to ~6" long, are $2.50. I can pack a lot in a flat rate envelope. USPS Priority Mail is $6.50. I take PayPal.

The first batch are all acrylics, and labeled as to color.

More synthetics. The two on the left are Bakelite, old Bakelite. It isn't easy to turn but produces a gorgeous pen. The Bakelite blanks are $10 each. I have no idea what the third blank is. The fourth is Antique Amber, made in Italy, from a place in the Salt Lake City that I think went out of business. I sold several pens made from this stuff. the next three are some old stuff from Italy that makes really nice pens. the last three are acrylics maybe from that same place in SLC. Bakelite and old Italian stuff are sold

The third batch is a mix. The five blanks on the left are Tru-Stone: Lapis w/Pyrite, Turquoise, Blue Matrix, Malachite and Jasper. These are $10 each. A set of snakeskin Baron blanks, $5. Three cast acrylic blanks with shredded currency. Tru-Stone and snakeskin are sold

The fourth batch is Alabaster(?), some kind of white stone anyway. I never got around to trying this stuff. SOLD

The fifth batch is some nice flame Box Elder and Spalted Maple.

The sixth batch is a mix of woods. There are two Buckeye burl blanks but they aren't together. I have no idea what the first blank is, not do I know what "OPK" means. The last two sets on the right are dyed stabilized Box Elder Burl, black and red. Buckeye burl and three items on the right are sold

The seventh batch is also a mix of woods. Beginning on the left is, I think, Cocobolo, then a nice burl. the rest are labeled except for the stabilized spalted maple (second from right) and the last one is Yorrel from OZ.First two blanks on left are sold

And the last batch for now is another mix of wood. the first four are Bown Mallee, then three Red Mallee, three unidentified burls and finally three Brazilian Redwood.SOLD

I'll take the 3rd batch and the last batch.

EDIT: Just the last batch please (Did not see the price on the 3rd batch).

The 2nd batch and the 7th batch.

EDIT: NO 2nd batch unless the "stuff from Italy" falls through. Only the 2 cocobolo blanks from batch 7.

Holy smokes! What a response. I should have said you do not have to take the entire batch. It will take a few minutes for me to figure this out. Then I'll [post what I think you want.
 
Okay, this is what I think you both want. Let me know if anything is amiss.
