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

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.

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

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.

Sorry to hear your shoulder turned traitor on you.
