any spare pieces
fishfinder401:
i was just wondering if anyone had a relativity straight piece of osage, or any other non white wood only around 2ft long that they could spare, i will be using it to make a handle for an antique fishing rod that i am fixing up and i thought it would look awesome to have a osage handle
thanks

I' think I would....2'x?x?. How thick should it be??

If Lowell doesn't have it I probably do. I have many pieces in the 12" range. Another good choice would be mesquite, the heartwood is striking.

just around 2 inches, preferably a square shape, i will be turning it on a lathe, also i just looked at the rod blank that the old rod has and it a translucent almost electric blue, it looks so cool

I have a nice piece that is about 2"X2" but it is not square.....it is from a stave that I just trimmed up with a band saw. I'll try to show you a picture and see if it works for you.
