>Thanks Mark. I assume that you read the same article by Bill Sullivan that I did. I've always admired pieces turned from this wood and the article has motivated me. I didn't realize that he also sold this wood. Anyway, thanks for the reminder and I've emailed him. We'll see what develops. Thanks again.

>Honest to goodness, I did not know this was Bill Sullivan's. I just did a google search.

Happy Turning.

>Bill Sullivan just happened to do a demo of turning Norfolk Island Pine 2 meetings ago at my local turning club, and he does in fact sell his wood, I got 2 nice pieces, don't know enough to turn them yet, but will just cut smaller bowls from them ..... I do not know if he mail orders or not, postage would probably be pretty high I would think, but sure is beautiful wood when turned, he demo'd the process....Dennis

>I received an email from him earlier today. He sells at the rate of diameter X length X.35, plus shipping. In other words, a 10" X 10" "log" would be $35.00 plus shipping.

Watching the Ebay auctions, I suspect buying from him will be cheaper than Ebay. Of course many things are cheaper than Ebay, people get out of control in their effort to "win".
