Donation of Norfolk Pine Blank

>Here is my contribution: A Norfolk Pine Log, cut fresh within the last two weeks, eight (8) inches in diameter, with branches. Will include shipping via USPS Priority Mail to anywhere in the continental US. The value of the shipping cost alone should be about $60, depending on where you are. Please note that spalting starts almost immediately after the tree is cut down. This section of log on the donated piece has eight branches! Finished size should not be over 6-1/2" in diameter when turned end grain. Height should be about 6-8 inches. Photo is of a bowl 7" x 1-1/2", turned end grain within two weeks of being cut, so spalting is very minimal.
