Honduran Rose Burl

[rblakemore]

Good afternoon all;
my wife and I are still relatively new pen turners.
I like burl, grain, swirls, and eyes and saw a pen made Honduran rose burl and really like the looks of it.
But, I cannot find a few blanks; I am looking for 4 or 5 to work with.
Any ideas please??

Have you tried ebay?

Careful with that stuff...it is, IMHO, very unstable! I have heard of well aged blanks going for as much as $20 per. Listen to Harry...Google and see what you get!

I think you may want to try Honduran Rosewood Burl...

If you find any that doesn't require a second mortgage let us know. Last I had was from Logs to Lumber.

I just got some gabon ebony from them and have ordered from them and bell woods before. Great couple of sources.

Want to see an awesome curly redwood. I just purchased this from a guy on ebay. I have purchased many pieces from him...

CAG Lumber in Gainesville Ga. had some nice slabs of Honduran Rosewood burl at the woodworking show last weekend.
