Stash Photos - Your very favorite piece

[Tad Lynch]

I love these stash threads. I grabbed some good examples from my stash: ironwood, walnut, figured cocobolo, koa, stag, ivory.

You guys have some nice stuff!

I guess I'll take a couple photos tomorrow.

I don't know if your insurance company will LET you post - it might be too much temptation......

Now, this is going to be good!

My stash is tiny!!! A chunk of walrus tusk and two matching slabs of mammoth. The color of the walrus tusk looks real dull here, but its a bit better in person. I've been hanging on the the mammoth scales for years and I still think they are gorgeous. Even Don Hanson likes them!!

Slightly better pic of walrus..

 

[Kevin Jones]

^ Jon, very nice and interesting set of mammoth scales you have there. :thumbup:

 

[RogerP]

Those scales are trrific Jon! Tad - nice stash indeed - I think I recognize at least one piece of stag. Russ - super-nice Koa!

I can't wait to peek at Don's collection - even a small portion will likely make me go cross-eyed.

[Don Hanson III]

Jon, send me those mammoth scales... Please.

I've been very busy forging and forgot to take photos.
It want be easy, have to drag it all out for a group shot, but tomorrow for sure.

Bill, no insurance company will have me

 

[Jon Brand]

Don.. if you really want them you got it, but they are going on a knife for me! I got them at Blade 6 years ago I think and have just been waiting to see them on something nice. Never seen any ivory like it. You probably have!

 

[Don Hanson III]

Jon, we'll talk

Here's a quick shot. Joe (canineforge) stopped by to forge a bit and helped me
drag this out. These are pretty big plastic bins and 8"10" deep.

I think this qualifies as a "stash photo". Someday I'll go back to the Adirondacks and get this thing. Until then, its stashed safely away in the forest... and that's all I'm giving you.

If I may chime in on this thread.

You folks have some lovely wood ! That Koa piece is ridiculously handsome....

[Kevin Jones]

Wow, look at all that BLUE.
That's a heck of a collection

 

[Don Hanson III]

Wow, look at all that BLUE.
That's a heck of a collection

It'd have been better to spread it all out, but don't have a wide angle lens.

 

[John M Cohea]

Man Don, that little bit you sold me did'nt even dent your stashOne tub of that and I would be set for YEARS!!

 

[Mark Knapp]

I gotta say I love the stashes. There is a lot of amazing stuff in there. Here's some of mine.

Along the top prehistoric, like mammoth tooth, woolly rhino and blue amber, some minerals and fossils like labradorite and ammonite, got some meteorite and dino bone, some blue fossil walrus that goes way deep, and some orange. Some blue mammoth and some pretty cool woods. In the bottom left some handle sub-assemblies of natural materials.

It's great fun to rummage through all this stuff.

 

[RogerP]

I figured you HAD to have a pretty insane stash Mark, and you sure do.
