Sorry Branden, the #31R is no longer available.

While I'm trying to be as fast as I can, marking the pics with the (X) on the sold blanks, it seems that isn't fast enough, sorry but you guys have to look at what was sold, just in case I haven marked some of the sold blanks, yet...!

Cheers

parcel sent...!

Hi everyone,

I would like to thank all who have put some orders so far...!

To make things a little easier than send individual messages to everyone, I would like also to let everyone that made purchases that all has been paid for and all the orders were posted Monday (30-1-12).

PS: Anyone that have missed-out on the casted Palm root blanks, some more will be available in the next couple of weeks, here at IAP...!:wink:

Thank you,

Cheers

Thanks for posting this. All of the eye candy is pushing me hard to get my US shop back up to turning. I really like your palm root blanks!

And I enjoy reading the stories you post about harvesting the burls and wood! Love it!

Thanks Hank,

You have been also a good contributor to the world of wood-turning and alternative materials for some years now and, in a way, we all give a little of ourselves in the world of these forums and our contributions, regardless of what they are, tell a lot about the person behind the fingers that type on the keyboard.

I'm fortunate that, I'm in a ideal location to satisfy my passion as a wood person, not only I get a lot of wood, I get lots of different species. Once upon a time, I though that I could turn them all myself but after a few years of trying, it became obvious that I was in a impossible mission, and one that I could no longer afford as the investment I put into everything, wasn't giving any returns as, this not the best location to be to sell your turned items so, the decision to share all my woods with the world, was the only way to be able to keep collecting and salvaging all these magnificent woods...!

I also believe that, one of the major differences of buying my woods, and woods sold by most other people, particularly in stores is that, the wife and I we do all the work, from beginning to end, being in that position also allow us to use the (point and click) photography to document a lot of what we do, this result in a right tool to evidentiate and validate the various stages of each particular wood species collected, not only for our own records but also to share with everyone...!

I suppose, I have to admit that, I like to write and be very detailed about my thoughts and doings, resulting in long threads or posts that, are telling always something...!
Many other people, like yourself, wouldn't expect or want, anything less from me after they started to get used to my long "talks".
Many also say that, I am a good story teller and others say that, I just talk too damn much. Either way, I couldn't ever please everyone so, I keep doing what I like and know best, some may find it a little too adventurous sometimes, others just thing my stories are funny, while others may not give a rat's a$$ so, hopping that my time and efforts are appreciated by some of you so, your words are the only reward type, I really cherish...! Thank you.

Cheers
George
