I just got my bill back from Mike at WSSI and its a doozy. I am selling some of these pieces to try
and cover some of my costs. These are primo blocks done up by WSSI. There is also some oversized
blocks of black ash at the bottom for those that do their own. If you buy 4 or more blocks I will pay
shipping. Prefer paypal. -Thanks for checking 'em out and if you have questions please let me know....Larry
The first pic has:
(2) Rib Fruit Mallee Burl - Australia $30 each (#1 = 1 5/8th x 1+ x 5 5/16ths) (#2=1 5/8th x 1+ x 5)
(2) Purple and Gold Box Elder Burl Double Dyed - $40 each
(4) Black and Gold Box Elder Burl Double Dyed - $40 each
*** Please note that WSSI's requirement for double dyed box elder is that the block be pure white, and
then the double dye process is over $20 per lb, so the price is a little more, but I think the quality and
coloring speaks for itself.
Specs on the box elder are at the bottom of the post.
The next pic has Stabilized Black Ash Burl at $30 each
This is block 3B Stabilized Black Ash Burl bookmatched, into scales. I did this so there is
no risk to anyone of them cutting this block and worrying about that little knot coming through,
and you can also get a better idea of what they look like when bookmatched. I opened her up
for ya, and this is what you get ...pure 100% Black Ash Burl bookmatched into half inch thick scales !!!!!
Sorry about the flash !!!!
