View Full Version : Free wood

I have a LARGE quantity of 1x1x10" soft maple squares that I cannot use due to a change in how I make these lures now. Most are drilled for a belly weight at about the 6" mark so either use them as is or use the 6" piece to make stubbies etc or fill the hole.

Wood is free...shipping is not. You pay ups shipping to where ever. No commercial builders, for private use only...

Since there is so much and I have minimal time to do this, shipping etc will be on a "as I have time" basis. Pickups can be arranged...I can throw the stuff in a box and leave it outside somewhere.

First person that emails me and says they want 200 pieces I throw it all in the dumpster...I'm only doing this to help you guys out with the hobby not to put money in someones pocket. The more the merrier.

Email me your address etc to scott@#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&.com and I will get back to you with the shipping total as time permits.

Let me get some time this week to box the stuff and see what's left, I'll let you guys know. There is alot there. I had predrilled this stuff for weight holes but have completely changed how these are done now, and will never go back to the old way so it's all excess at this point.

Ok everything is boxed and there was enough for 2 more guys who have been emailed for their addresses. I basically put about 50 pc in each box. There was a mix of soft maple and mixed birch in there so some guys got some of each, or one or the other. Ups amounts are in the boxes. The most expensive one was that piggy guy in NJ at $10.94 :D Bill no way you would have wanted $20 worth that's alot of wood and this will keep ya busy for the next few months :D

VB I should be at the shop this Saturday pending what happens at the Doc on Friday. I think I gave you the tel # there.

All others sorry, Sometime there will be more so if and when it happens remind me you missed out this time and I'll make sure you're at the top of the list next time.

The ups guy is gonna hate me tomorrow. There's over 300 lbs of wood there :D

Hey Salty, not writing to ask for wood. Just writing to say thanks for being such a good guy and so willing to share with others. Not just materials, but all the advice you give. I'm not much of a poster here, but I lurk alot, and it always impresses me how much you help others. I wish you well !

There will be more sometime jnski. If you want birch or maple turning squares email me and I can send you a list of what I got. MUCHO cheaper than buying it at a lumberyard even with ups. I can optionally through drill them on my machine for you for cheap dough additional if you want also.
