Yes sir. I did buy it. Is it of interest? I can send you more pictures if you want them.

what? .. huh? . .. no . .. it's just, well, you mentioned that you've got a slot coming up in a little while, and I recalled you showed us a block that I found to be quite unusual and stunning . . and . . . and . . . errrrrmm . . .

nevermind

I would be very happy if you could sprinkle that block with magic bee dust and turn it into a Pinch :)

'sbigenoughright?:?:


Greg Dahl did this one at 4.9"x2.5"x2" (126x65x53mm)

It is stabilized Box Elder so it may not be your preferred material. I can send it if you want, or find something more suitable.

oh, geez . .. the Giggity/NutPunch peeps are gonna be breaking down your door for that block. (seems blocks of sufficient size for that design are harder to come by, and that one is so gorgeous)

Box Elder takes to stabilizing like nobody's business. At first, I was a mite concerned about it's natural softness; but there's something either in its underlying structure or just the way it sponges up the stabilizing agent that makes it a great candidate. So, after a few years of making Stab. Box Elder mods and seeing their track record, I'd say it's quite suitable. Although, too, it does depend on what one considers stabilizing to be. There's no small amount of variation in that process either; and I've seen "stabilized" blocks that seem no harder/different than natural wood. Can you make a mark/indentation with your thumbnail? What agent does Greg Dahl use to stabilize?
