As I am cleaning up my shop I keep coming across more and more stuff that just takes up space, it needs to go.
STABILIZED WOOD BLOCKS
Here is a package of stabilized wood blocks. Most are 1.5" square, some have been cut into halves, all are of a length suitable to make pens out of. Some have the species labeled, each box has some really pretty buckeye burl (this is the last of 3 boxes I had). Some randomly picked blocks are shown in the photo

A stabilized pen blank is typically around 2 oz, i.e. 8 to the pound. I filled 3 medium USPS priority boxes, each is about 15 lb (there is 1 box left now). You can calculate how much 15 lb of stabilized blanks cost you these days (appr. 120 blanks). You'd be looking at $600-1000! I'm asking $239 for each box, plus $11 USPS priority shipping within the US. Shipping to Canada runs $27. SOLD
ANTLER:
Again I have WAYYYY too much. Quite a bit of it I bought probably 15 years ago from one of our members who ran a deer farm. It's been stored indoors. I found an invoice attached to one of the old boxes - I paid over $10/lb at that time. I'm asking $5/lb - if you compare that with antler prices at our reg. suppliers you'll find it's a very good deal.
Box 1 is a mix of elk, mule deer and reindeer. Weight is nearly 11 lb. I am asking $50 plus priority postage from zip 12590, it does not fit in flatrate box SOLD

Box2 is random antler, some whole, some bought as blanks, a few pieces are drilled for cigar and 7mm. It also has a piece of moose. What's in the picture is not all that's in the box, I fit the moose and large pieces then added as much material as I could fit. The box weighs over 17 lb. I am asking $85 plus $15 priority shipping (large flatrate box, within the US) SOLD

Box 3 is large antler. Some are very solid, others have porous core and need to be filled, if making pens. Some are fat enough to make small vases out of. A piece of a moose antler is in there also. Weight is a little over 19 lb. Asking only $75 plus priority postage from zip 12590 (does not fit flatrate box)
