    Default Pen Blanks

    Adrian suggested I join this forum. I'm the guy that sent him some pen blanks from the USA. Shipping was a breeze, and I can fit about 22 pen blanks in a small flat rate box. Apparently, it took less than two weeks to get to Australia from here. Shipping on a flat rate box was about $25US.

    I have lots of pen blanks available...

    currently I have:
    ambrosia maple $.75/blank
    birdseye maple $.90/blank
    bocote $1.75/blank
    zebrawood $1.25/blank
    caribbean cherry $.90/blank
    makore $1.25/blank
    american chestnut $3.00/blank
    cocobolo $1.25/blank
    goncalo alves $.90/blank
    granadillo $1.25/blank
    jatoba $.90/blank
    koa $3.75/blank
    lacewood $.95/blank
    peruvian walnut $.90/blank
    purpleheart $.75/blank
    redheart $1.50/blank
    red marble wood $1.20/blank
    sapele $.90/blank
    shedua $.90/blank

    prices are in US dollars

    I do not know why this is an auction post… it's not intended to be one.

    feel free to message me at [email protected] if you're interested!

    Before posting any wood products to Australia, it would be worth checking the Quarantine regulations. Most timber needs treatment before it's allowed in. It's not just visible borers etc that are a problem, there are also issues with moulds and fungi that can damage Australian plants.

    Some info - http://www.agriculture.gov.au/biosecurity/mail/internet

    Pen blanks are fine. (I've imported before and they simply Gamma it if worried. They rang once and on others emailed me to check if OK)

    I'll be ordering some for sure! I simply can not believe how cheap timber is in the USA. The incredible variety and availability is AWESOME!
