cherry wood trade?
 
I've got 8 really nice pieces of 2x2 (approx) cabinet grade cherry that I've been staring at for a year. (almost too nice for plugs) anyway- I'm looking for some nice birch (or maple) if anyne wants to trade.

each of us pays shipping one wway- straight up trade. let me know if yer interested......

Make yourself a couple of nice striper pikies out of it. Add a little size an you'll love the results. I made a few an didn't paint the whole body just around the eyes to include a couple lookin like squid with eyes out back.I soaked them twice then after the small amount of paint covered them with etex.Stripers love the color at night especially around lights with shadow lines. Just an idea. Ron

Chris- I shoulda mentioned that.... they range between 8-11 inches.

I;m thinking of going to the CTSurfcasters day later this month and could meet you there if you wanna go ahead.

Bob If Chris doesn't go for them I'll take them. I can give you a few baseball bat barrels of birch & rock sugar maple.

Sounds good bob.

What do you want.

I have birch, maple and a bunch of hardwoods, all varied sizes and lengths.

Might have some flame birch mixed in too.

I haven't started on my stash of hardwoods yet, let me know.

birch is good.... anything about 1" or a little more is fine. I like birch for swimming-type littleneck plugs. bring some along to the CSA day on the 26th and we can do the deal.....

I'm also building a 1265 over the winter- we can talk more then

thx- Bob
