Two Western Big Leaf Maple burls.  The round one is approx 350 lbs, 34"D x 30" small end x 23" high.  The stem weight approx 300 lbs, 15" D x 10.5" D (small end) x 55" long.  I will sell separately or together, asking $3.00 lb, will consider offer.  You pay shipping, I will package at no charge, on pallet and shrink wrapped to protect.

the round one is shown here - having problems getting pictures small enough to post

will put second post for the long one

I am sure Jay or myself can post it for you if you like.  I dont think Nathen is going to make an issue as its what the site is all about.  I think on a rules basis, its probably written to prevent the spammers from filling up the server space with garbage for sale that has nothing to do with wood working. 

Jay is a moderator on that site so I am sure he will let you know how to procede.

That would be great, if Nathan would let that happen.  If you want to try, Kirk, go right ahead.

I hasd someone see these pictures a few days ago, from Pa..  He wanted to know the cost of shipping and I will let him know, but he wanted only 20or 30 pounds of one of the pieces.  I told him I do not want to split any one of the pieces, but have other pieces in that weight catagory he might like.  We will see.
