during the weekend I got 2 orders for bowls in the 12"-14" range one curly rock maple and the other cherry, neither grows in my neck of the woods, so I will have to purchase.
I don't have anything like that in stock but I'll bet by sundown today you'll have what you need on it's way! Looks like you are putting that new Lathe to good use..
I have had some luck finding bowl blanks from venders on e-bay. Do a search under....
Crafts-Woodworking-woodturning-lumber
go to Crafts first the under crafts search under woodworking...then woodturning....then lumber...not often do you find blanks that large....but you never know?
Shoot me your email at the above address. I might have some Cherry blanks the size you need. If I do we can work out some sort of trade.
I recently upgraded quality, but downgraded the size of my lathe. I have some blanks that are too large to turn and I don't want to cut them down any more.
If you'd care to drop by ('bout 40 miles East of Bill's), I think we can accomodate you nicely. (You like that walnut from the Summer?) Do you mind if the curly maple has a bit of Ambrosia in it?
