Yew stave giveaway

(1/14) > >>

Sabb:
Short version: I've got more yew squirrelled away right now than I  deserve. I'd like some of it to do something interesting.

Quality varies from pretty good to kinda interesting. 20 to 40 rpi, sapwood from 1/8 to 1/4 " Split, stored dry but unheated, bark on. Harvested 2016-17-18. Lengths to 80".  From small diameter trees ( 4-6") I got there just before the harvesters)

Site references: traded with DC and Wizardgoat, known to Blayne and Penderbender. Will ship Canada and US. I'd like to send wood to two individuals. Will draw names Feb 10

Long version:  I've been lurking for a while here, and wanted to contribute something to the community.  I've never shipped staves and have been hesitant.  I won't put anyone's wood in the mail without their approval of pictures of exactly what they are getting.  Pretty hesitant and don't  want to leave anyone grumpy about what they got.  I  think I know generally what to look for and how to describe it honestly. If this works out I'd love to set up some trades. Please don't be in a rush...

If I left out details anyone needs, let me know

EdwardS:
Can you put my name in the hat?  80 inch yew would make me the perfect bow.

Pat B:
Sebastian, I'd like to get in on this but I don't need 80". 66" or so would be fine.

bjrogg:
Sebastian that's a very nice offer you put out there. I would love to put my name in your hat. I promise I won't be grumpy with anything I might receive. If I were to receive one hopefully I could make a bow that wouldn't make you grumpy.lol.
Very nice gesture.
