Rowan or Mountain Ash

[David Buskell]

Does anyone have some rowan in their wood store they want to swap or sell? One of Our American members wants a piece for a special project.
Brodie's may be getting some in around 2 months time but trying to get some before then.
Thanks

how big a bit do you need?

Steve,
I don,t know. As it has got to go the us I guess no more than a bowl blank size.My contacts only arrive back in Oklahoma later this morning so cannot check with them.

Do you have all sizes?.

no i don't have all sizes. if i know what size is needed then i'll be able to say if i can help or not.

they are rings but hopefully the will be big and deep enough for the desired purpose.


check with them and let me know.

[David Buskell]

Thanks Steve, will do.

Steve,
Just got this from Oklahoma:

"maybe 2 pieces. - one for about a 5-6" lidded bowl & one spindle 6-10" long by a couple inches square, ----- if this is possible."

Can you let me know if this is OK from the stock you have?

the rings i have i can just get 10" out of and a 2" square is ok for that. they want just the one?



i can get a 6" bowl blank or possibly even an 8" square blank but how thick does it need to be?

[David Buskell]

Let me get back to you . I,ll call you as soon as I hear from Oklahoma.

i think 3"-3 1/2" would be the thickest i can get from the ring without incorporating splits and cracks.
