I'm finally about to have some time in the shop again!!!
I need a few pieces of dry Texas Ebony to use in the handles of the knives I put up in the St. Jude auction this year. I'm still a few weeks off from needing it, but I've been unable to find anything that isn't soaking wet.
Anyone have a few peices in the shop? I don't need much.
No Texas ebony but I have some Gaboon if you need it.

i think i can get some at woodcrafters here in dallas, it has the wax on the outside, not sure if it's stableized. let me know
dana
Dana,
The wax on the outside is to keep it from drying out too fast. Usually a real heavy coating to keep it wet for wood turning. That's all I can find and it would take a long time to dry (or check badly).
I might be able to get some for you. My buddy should have some left over from a couple of bows he built for me.
That'd be great!! I don't need much.
pm me your addy
Jeremy, If things didn't work out from above e-mail me at recurve@dishmail.net
