sometimes in north america called elderberry. Anyone ever hear of it or know of a supplier that has some? If you have some I need about 18 inch long piece if you can part with it I can buy or trade. I have now looked at about 20 different suppliers site around north America now.

Thanks for anyone who can help.

Elderberry doesn't grow real big around here as it is more of a bush. It may get about 6 to 7 feet tall with a diameter of maybe three inches. It grows all over around here. Not sure its even a wood type plant as I have only picked the berry's. Mailing an 18 inch piece could be costly. Not sure though. Is your postal service still on strike?
 
I gave up on Canada post long ago I live near enough the Boarder in NY I took a PO box. could be as small as 15 inches. long and minimum 1 inch square. can you help? soulds like I will need to cure what you have but I need to get this started so unless someone has some already cured and ready I may just need to offer to buy it from you if you have?
 
We just cut down an Elderberry TREE or else a Huge bush the trunk is about 5 or 6 in diameter and I have several larger limbs that are an inch or larger, that I would be happy to send you, just for the postage, it's still green, but I can seal the ends with wax or anchorseal, we have turned a few pieces and it's pretty dense wood.
