These have all been sent to K&G for stabilizing 8/10. The thread is now closed.
This is the last of the Black Palm I will be cutting for a while. I have a lot of other cool woods that are being neglected. So after this, on to them.

Black Palm (Borassus flabellifer) native to Southeast Asia.

Just a week ago was my first time ever working with Black Palm. At first look it was boring with killer splinters. Another forum member told me it should be cut diagonally, so that is what I did. WOW! What a transformation. These blocks look like some sort of reptile skin. Black Palm is hard wood, but should be stabilized to protect against splinters and give added strength. I really like this stuff.

If you would like the blocks you get from this thread stabilized, I can send them with my next batch to K&G for an extra $5 each. Turnaround time is about 2 weeks from when they receive them. I will be sending batches to K&G for stabilizing every week or so.

If you would like your blocks cut into scales I can do that at no charge.
US Shipping is $2.50 for 1 block or free if you get 2 or more. Canada Shipping is $10 for up to 3 blocks. The rest of the world is $12 for up to 3 blocks. My address to make payment through paypal is itsaburl@hotmail.com.


When you decide which blocks you want, just post "I'll take #s ......" and I will mark them sold for you. Be sure to note in your post if you want them stabilized or cut into scales.

These blocks come with a No questions asked, Money back guarantee.

I am running 1 day late getting this batch sent to K&G.

If anyone else wants to get some of these and to have them stabilized we have until about 1 or 2pm Tuesday before I send out this batch. Then this thread will be closed to additional purchases.

Thanks everyone, Mark
