Extreme Curly Maple

[juteck]

Other than ebay, I'm looking for a source for one or two EXTREME curly maple pen blanks, vendor or member, purchase or trade.

thanks!

Well, I have some very densely..

curled Maple. In fact I have about 12 bf of it. I am not sure about your definition of the word extreme though.

I could cut off 6-7" of a boardd and sent to you. And you could make your own blanks. The boards are 3/4 x 8" x 72"

If you are interested let me know and we can go from there.

Makes it easier for suppliers if you define what you want in terms of number of curls/inch

How about the one on the left?

I have quite a bit of it.....
All kiln dried.

I have this request worked out already, but if there are any other source recommendations, I'll keep them save for future use!!

I hadn't thought about it this way -- but I'd guess somewhere between 1/16" to 1/4" striping - the tighter/denser the better on a small scale like a pen.

Depending on how you define curl...

You can define a full curl .. both the forward and back wave part as being one complete curl

Or you can define each part as a curl

The first way.. you could have 4 curls to inch and
The second you would have 8 curls to the inch of the same piece.

I've got some curly maple that can do backflips off of a zipline into a lake of fire.

what are you offering?
