Looking for Dyed / Stabilized Peppermill Blanks

[jason_r]

OK, not exactly pens, but I've searched to no avail and figured you all are the most likely to know where to find these or be able to make them.

I'm looking for some green dyed, preferably stabilized, figured blanks for peppermills. Some purple ones would be nice, but I can use purpleheart for the top portion if needed.

Pen blanks, duck calls, etc- no problem finding dyed/stabilized in green. But getting up to the near 3" square blanks for peppermills, I just haven't found.

Anyone know of a source / able to make some?

Thanks

Check with https://www.turningblanks.net/ They have died 3"x3" blanks shown, not sure if they are long enough for you but if you contact them maybe they can supply them.

I would think you could make them, if you drilled the hole first, so the stabilizing fluid could come from the inside out.

I missed the dyed ones when I was there. Thanks for catching that.

I could do dyed relatively easily, but I'm not (yet) setup for stabilizing. It would be an excuse to get that rig, but my schedule is relatively tight.
Thanks

I'd be more than happy to cut and stabilize blanks in that size for you. We typically don't carry them in stock because there isn't a huge market but we love making bigger blanks @ Bullseye Turning Supply
