All the pieces in this thread have been sold or are being moved to our webstore. Thank You Everybody.

These photos show both sides of the blocks wiped with a light surface coat of Minwax "Wipe on Poly" to give a better idea how they will look finished without adding moisture to the wood.

When you see blocks you want, just post "I'll take #s ...." and I will mark them sold for you. US shipping is $2.50 each or $10 for as many will fit in a flat rate box.

Paypal is our preferred method of payment. Our address for paypal is itsaburl@hotmail.com. Payment is requested within 7 days. If you need to pay with a money order let me know and I will PM our mailing address.

If you need a little more time for payment, please send a PM asking first before posting I'll take #.... I will try to be flexible.
These blocks come with a "No Questions Asked, Money Back Guarantee". If for any reason they are not exactly what you wanted, just send them back within 7 days for a full refund.

========================================================

I was going to make a box with this but I better finish some of my other projects before I take on another one. You should be able to get several handle blocks from this piece. There are a couple shallow surface checks on the backside. Measurements are taken from the side with the smallest face.

Oregon black oak burl is very unusual oak. This type oak does not have all the open pores like you usually see with oak. With burl the grain looks like piles of spaghetti. When you fine sand this other colors appear as well as very chatoyant figuring. There will be some voids and bark pockets. It is up to you whether to fill them.

Mark,

That is some DENSE ironwood--it looks better in person than the pic.
I wish I'd got more.

Got mine too Mark. Better than the pictures, and generous with your dimensions.

Thanks, Craig
