Hi,
My father and I are turners over here in Live Oak, FL. We come across a lot of domestic woods from tree service businesses in our area. (cherry, sweet gum, maple, magnolia, cedar…..) No trees are cut for the purpose of bowl blanks. The trees that are cut would otherwise be burned or buried.
We would like to provide your club members with a source of bowl blanks. Here is an example of our price: 8″X4″ round blank of cherry is 10.00. All blanks are sealed in paraffin wax. Shipping is always a large expense for turners. For this reason we are offering free delivery with the purchase of at least 500.00. If this interests you send me your address and I will send a sample blank for you to try out.
