Maybe I will buy some stock in Minwax.....looks like they are going to be selling a lot of wood stabelizer :)
 
i guess i should clearfy that it would be some thing less then 1board foot for a hobbist knifemaker to try out for them selves as scales .. the samples are cut offs from were i have made thigs of this stuff.
i did not even trash small pices.
Cougar Allen note:
i am NOT planing on selling any !!! i have sent this stuff to others free already!
i am jest being a nice guy with the small parts i have cut off that are larger then 6 inches.
at places that sell this stuff is very expensive! over 25$ a board foot.
the sample is free and i do ask for postage donation if i have more then a few request.. but it is not nessary -that would be about 4 or 5$ and one per person please... email 67ss@adelphia.net to request.

...Yep I saw it Dave...Don't hurry down here my friend...Take care of the little lady. I know how bad reactions can be from chemo...My youngest daughter has leukemia and the chemo they had her on was so bad it's hard to imagine. Lost all her hair and developed blisters over every square inch of her body...even in her mouth. Just stay with the wife Dave...My prayers are with her and with you...

I did see that you cut down a female kine tree:mad: . What were you thinking:eek: . At least I bet its quiet now. Sorry to hear your wife's having a tuff time. Please send her a big hug from the Burton family and let her know she is in our prayers.

thank you all!
it has been a rough row to hoe some times
and being here working on the trade thing
hads been a "nomal" escape for me for a bit as i chat with you guys...
i check on her and she now is sleeping a lot and yes we know of the sores and skin comeing off...
she was getting it every two weeks as she was so healty
but this stuff is ...well strong poison... and she may have to go to 3 weeks
the other chemo she whiped it in 4 days and in 7 was almost normal...
well compared to now she was normal now she sleeps a lot and times i have to help her up to go to the restroom ...
the blessing is we have good insurence and her chemo bill is $12 co pay on a 8,000 $ treatment day ,,, some stuff is not covered so welll like some test but i wont complain ...no not me ... like hell i wont! i dont heastate to get on the phone to the hmo at all! but at home -
i'm learning to cook her way
and wash dishes her way
and do landry her way
and vacume her way
