Spalted Big Leaf Burl
« on: January 15, 2008, 07:14:24 PM »
I have around 5,000 pounds of Western Big Leaf Maple burl, some is spalted and some not.  Some may be tooooo spalted, for turning.  I am alsking $2.75 a pound semi-green and Left Coast water coated.  I will subtract a pound or three for possible water content.   ;D

Buyer gets to pay the shipping.  Pictures are a major issue, as I have to con the wife into sending you a picture or three. ::)

It was down to the wire at Christmas and I grabed the first managable chunk I had in the shop.  ;D

Tail Gunner:
What would be the min. that I can buy from you, love to turn some burl specially if spalted. Please let me know so I can send you a check and trust that you will send some nice stuff for turning. I have a small lathe 14" throw and new at it.
Thank you for taking the time to respond.
PS: Simi Valley area for shipping if you can choose for me would be great.
