Dan Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) I just received a bunch of Baltic birch ply. The grain is so amazing I hate to cut it up. I just applied some cherry stain. Edited February 12, 2015 by Dan Scrappile, tomsteve and AlfrediaMum 3 Quote

jerry1939 Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 I buy BB from here and have always been happy with it. I often buy "Good on both sides." That way, IF there is ever a flaw, there is always the other side. I consider it cheap insurance for the number of hours spent sawing a piece. http://www.sloanswoodshop.com/default.htm jerry Quote
jamminjack Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 Hay Dan Sometimes you get pieces of wood with outstanding grain,and you just hate to even cut it; I can relate to that. Enjoy and make a masterpiece..... Quote
Scrolling Steve Posted February 12, 2015 Report Posted February 12, 2015 Wow! The BB i've been using is really tame next to that!........Thanks for showing! Quote
LarryEA Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 Frame it... Nah, like my wife says, 'Take a picture and cut it.' Quote
Dan Posted February 13, 2015 Author Report Posted February 13, 2015 Frame it... Nah, like my wife says, 'Take a picture and cut it.' That's exactly what I'm going to do. Unfortunately I bought it for the bookmarks so I will be cutting it into 1-1/2 by 6-inch pieces. Maybe there are some more good pieces in the rest of the order. Guess I'll have to look. Quote
Scrappile Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 That is pretty stuff. Hate to see it used for bookmarks, but they sure will be specially pretty ones. That really need to be a nice piece with some great word of wisdom scrolled in it. The last two sheets of BB I bought (5' x 5') has been the worst I have ever gotten. Going to a different store next time. I should have know they were the last two sheet he had. Should have told me something...... Quote

wombatie Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 The squirrels will look very fancy cut out of that Dan. I wish we could get even half decent BB over here. Marg Quote
