Drak Posted December 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 My package was torched in Old Chicago, so don't feel bad. My Secret Wood was 'Trinity A'. That's God Wood fellers. I am liking these pics tho, nice stuff(!), especially 'whatever'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drak Posted December 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 Durawoods sent me an e-mail stating expected delivery time for the two Maple sets will be Dec. 23rd. And the Secret Shipment arrived today. There's a strange effervescent light emanating from within the box. What does that mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drak Posted December 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2004 Yes, that's some gorgeous wood allright (the bottom 2 anyway) Gotta give you credit! Me lik-ee me lik-ee! Now, ...can you make those birds really sing? Having the nice wood is one component. What you do with it and your finishing skills is the -other- component.

Drak Posted December 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2004 OK, I will let the cat out of the bag. The Secret Shipment is Buckeye Burl, and since I got the pieces I want <burp> and I'm probably set for a year or better, I'll let loose the supplier, hehehe. NEWTON WOODS WOODSTORE Keith Newton is the man, check out this site. He has some beautiful Walnut as well, and some large enough to get a 1-piece body out of too.
