ok well USPS's website is acting up so I'll get the tracking # once it's back to normal.

Here's the pic of what came in the box and then of the blank I kept and replaced it with.

I only put the direct links bc I took the pics with my cell and couldn't edit them down and they're pretty large so I didn't want to take up the whole page.

Edit: Ok it finally worked. Here's the # 9405503699300044713392

Well in anticipation for getting this box, I finally have 1 blank segmented. I wasn't sure if I would like the blank so I made 2 of them and turned the ugly of the 2. I guess a few more blanks need to be done, just in case I want to get few blanks out of the box. Here is a pic of the turned one. Both were made with stabilized and dyed buckeye burl(orange dye on main pen and black on the scallops)

I have the box ready to go as soon as I get an addy. PM sent. Here are some pics to drool on. I took one from truckfxr and one from 3Peake. Second pic is what I replaced them with. Box hasn't changed much from the previous pic from Brooks.

It arrived today with three casualties. I will re-glue and get it over to David. My blank didnt survive so I will pop in a replacement.
 
One of yours (in three pieces), one of mine (in three pieces) and one by PSU1980 (this had just a simple glue up). I'm thinking it got dropkicked.

I wouldn't worry too much about it Joe. Like I was saying to Eric earlier today, "I believe it's just the nature of segmented blanks." When I first read one of the tutorials on this site last year for segmenting, it even talks about taping the blank during drilling so it doesn't blow apart. When there is a small amount of surface area to anchor the structural integrity, you're going to have a delicate piece. Just like cross grain blanks are more susceptible to blow out.

Maybe I should wrap mine in plumber's tape before shipment... and then a lead box encased in cement. :tongue:
