I still have a *lot* of nice wood left over from 40 years of collecting--available for pickup here on Orcas Island, or shipped via truck…
No more UPS/USPS/FedEx for me.
Enough already.
A pallet is usually 4’ x 4’ x 4’, and consistancy is the key…It’s nice to dial in soundboard plates using one tree, for instance.
All prices are FOB Orcas Island, Washington.
Email me with any questions, or more detailed info about the wood.

Lot #108: 200 sets in Bigleaf Maple for F5 mandolin, violin, or for resawing ukulele sets.
15” x 5.5” x 1” (x2).
Medium figure--nothing psychedelic.
Scaled at 15 bucks per set.
3000.00.
BUY.
Lot #112: Doesn’t get any better than this...
Hand-split redwood billets for mandolins or dulcimers.
32-36” long, 6” wide on the face, very tight graining, hard-to-the-fingernail--just beautiful stuff.
Much dryer than most of the sinker redwood I’ve been running into lately--great for shipping.
Scaled at 130 mandolins--you’ll get more.
3900.00.
BUY.
Lot #116: A nice stash of curly redwood for milling electric guitar sets…
The grain is not tight enough (12 GPI or so) or dead-on quartered enough for milling archtop or flattop sets…but the figure is as good as it gets…
Approximately 125” of resawable thickness…8”+ faces…24” lengths…
Scaled at 40.00 per thickness inch...
5000.00.
BUY.

Tight graining, nice split, lightweight wood all split from the same tree…nice stuff.
3000.00.
BUY.
Lot #120: A nice stash of Western Red Cedar for milling flat top guitar tops.
Would be nice for archtops as well…
Approximately 280” thickness inches of resawable thickness for milling jumbo flattops…
Tight graining, hard-to-the-fingernail, even coloring, straight graining...
5000.00.
BUY.
Lot #121: It’s very rare to find Western Red Cedar in longer lengths…most shake mills cut to 24” hand-split lengths on their billets…
Approximately 140”k of resawable thickness…great for cellos, dulcimers, and Weissenborns…
Hard to the fingernail, darker in color, tight graining, great split, and mostly even color…just nice wood.
$4K.
