Last Week for Free Burl Every Friday Drawing

[Burl Source]

This will be the last week for the Free Burl Every Friday Drawings.
The thread for the drawing seems to get lost in the shuffle of things so people don't seem to be participating anymore with entries or even claiming their prizes.

I like to have contests and give aways so I will just have to figure out a new way to do it. I am open to any ideas from you guys.

The prize for the 12/3 Drawing is this block of Curly Hickory. Super Hard and Super Curly.

I got some incredible redwood burl not long ago, and you threw in some maple too. Count me in.

I just recieved my Flashy Red Eye Dead Man's Maple Burl and it was even better looking than the pictures gave it justice.

I'd like to participate. This is my only finished knife so far. The wood is Beginner's Walnut.

I've got several things from you: maple burl, underground redwood burl, hard ancient redwood burl, red gum eucalyptus, willow, etc. Wouldn't object to some more

For those who haven't ordered: Mark has really great wood in generous sizes and excellent cuts. You'll like it. The first piece may be free ...

I have purchased some beautiful red gum eucalyptus from Mark and he graciously gave me a beautiful set of some redwood burl scales. I will try to get a pic of the gum up tonight, it is really beautiful stuff!

I recon Mark owns half my estate by now (it's a VERY small "estate" ) with all the burl wood I've gotten from him. I'm particularly a sucker for his old growth redwood stuff as well as some of his buckeye.

Well, prior to June 7th, I've purchased a passle of desert ironwood, some really nice redwood burl, and some English walnut from Mark. Always good wood (love the redwood) and fast shipping. And thanks for the red gum euc. as well!

Ah - I thought at first you were looking for a photo. I'm way away (3,000 miles away :-o ) from home at a job in Delaware, so I don't have photos of my purchases. But let me tell you something, I've bought an entire one of these full of Mark's fantastic products.

I've only used a few at this point. a couple of odds and ends of kitchen/barware. My future projects are seemingly endless, by the way, starting with handling a damascus coffin handle bowie for a friend who got the blank from Two Finger up in Idaho. It just might MIGHT need some of that hard-as-iron 40's redwood burl.
I've carved a couple of crude Mexican Day of the Dead skulls from his walnut, and I'm about to begin a set of mounted animal skulls that will have shield shaped mounts from bookmatched spalted maple and buckeye. Hoping that goes well.
Needless to say, I'm a big, big fan.

I've purchased a few blocks. Here is some of that 1940's redwood burl that was floating around a while back:

I'm in, I just picked up some really nice Koa blocks from Mark, and he's great to deal with here on BF. I just need to forge some more blades for my new handles

I've got from Mark, let's see....

Buckets of:

Maple burl
Buckeye burl (stablized and natural)
Redwood (God knows how many different types)
Spalted Maple
Eucalyptus
Claro Walnut and a bunch of other various species of walnut
Myrtlewood

I'm fairly sure there are some I'm missing but you get the idea.

I picked a little desert ironwood from you. I'm not too big on participating, but I gotta say that looks like a really nice piece of redwood burl.

Take care, Craig

I have purchased a bunch of wood from Burl Source.
The lighter colored scales are some maple burl from there.

I won a piece of sycamore off you a while back. It is now cut up into two handle blocks, with one waiting to be used on a hunting knife. Should be done in a couple of weeks.

I have ordered a couple of blocks and a bag of unstabalized scales from Mark. Great stuff.
