Free staves

(1/2) > >>

wildcat hunter:
  I'm done working on staves. My shoulder is worse now than before I got it worked on several years ago and the doctor said I just have to live with it.
SO, as they say - my loss is your gain.   ::)
 I have a lot of stave wood up for grabs. Its free ! Just bring a trailer or a heavy duty truck and haul them away. There are some Osage, Walnut, Black Locust, Ash. Some are split, some are logs. I do not want to ship.
 I live in Bedford County, PA, ) Buffalo Mills ). Thats 20 + miles North of Cumberland, Maryland.
 I like to work with wood so I bought a lathe and will turn the wood if nobody can take it. But I would rather somebody get it.
 Its worth a trip to get it. If you are buying staves and paying for shipping you'll get a lot more for your time and gas to come and get these staves.   :OK

Hawkdancer:
I'm too far away (2k miles) to make a run for it, darn!  If you decide that you would ship staves, be more than glad to front the cost.  Bummer in the shoulder surgery :'(.  Will send pm.

leadblimp:
If you were willing to ship, I too would be glad to front the cost. Good luck with the turnings!

wildcat hunter:

  I hate to ship something like staves. That means I have to pick them out and I might send something you cannot use. Puts me on the spot. A lot of the Osage is twisted, locusts are straight, Walnut - not sure about. I never could make a walnut bow that didn't break.
 I'll look at the stuff and get back to you guys.

JW_Halverson:
Sorry to hear your shoulder turned traitor on you.
