Hi all. Have some excess blanks laying around that I would be better served selling than holding onto forever.

First is two lots curly maple.
Lot A- maple A.jpg
all pieces are roughly 1" square. Most of the pieces have a natural edge on atleast one side. I tried to put them all showing in the pictures and think I did.
length of blanks from L-R: 4 1/4", 6 1/2", 4 1/2", 5 3/4", 5 3/4"

$5 buys it.

Lot B-maple B.jpg
all pieces are roughly 1" square. Most of the pieces have a natural edge on atleast one side. I tried to put them all showing in the pictures and think I did.
length of blanks from L-R: 6 1/2", 6", 6", 5", 4 1/4".

$5 buys it.


Coffee bean blanks.

These are round blanks , just a hair over 3/4" in diameter. Cast in white alumilite.
Blanks are in 2 lengths:
appx 2 1/2" $3.00 a piece 8 available
appx 3 1/4" $4.00 a piece. 5 available

The short ones should be long enough to do most any pen blank. The long ones are long enough to do the coffee scoop kits.
I reccomend once you thru drill to soak the inside of the blank with thin CA, let dry, then glue your tube in. of course, go slow and use lots of thin CA as you turn and you should do fine.



Mystery Burl


Last but not least, I have some unknown species of burled wood. This was traded to me from a friend a few years ago in slabs, so I cut them down into strips but have plenty left so I figured I'd get it out there to people who could use it.

(Blanks were misted with water for photo)

first photo shows the blanks labeled A-H.
Second photo is the same blanks in teh same order, just rotated 90* CCW, to give you a better idea of what the blank looks like.


ALL blanks have some checking AND/OR bark inclusion. They would be good for worthless wood casting or turning and using a crushed filler.

All blanks are approximately 1" square.
Lengths and prices are as follows
A 8 1/2" $7
B 8" $7 this piece has a cut in the bottom where the guy cut the block up with a chainsaw. it is visibile in the first pic
C 7 1/2" $7
D 7" $7
E 8 1/2" $7
F 6 1/2" $6
G 9" $7
H 5 1/2" $7

shiping to CONUS only, via USPS priorty mail, $5.25 for a small flat rate box. each maple lot fits in a FRB. all the burl blanks can be put in a box too. If you order more than can be put in a FRB, it'll just be whatever the extra cost in shipping is(i'm not looking to make moeny off shipping).

paypal only please.
