Title: Hickory for trade
Post by: leadblimp on August 16, 2017, 10:14:09 am

Hello, So I am new here (posting), have been lurking for a bit longer (I'm a creeper I know). So I have about a dozen hickory staves hanging out in my rafters. I am working on a couple currently, but was thinking what better way to get some experience with other types of wood than to see if anyone is willing to trade... I have worked hickory and black locust, but and open to whatever is out there really.

Thanks in advance.




p.s. its lead like the element, not in first place.

Do you have any pictures of the staves?  When were they cut?

I will take some when I get home this evening. The were cut a few months ago (April?). so they are still a little wet...
