    Who would like some wood?

    I am limited on space in my shop (read garage) and have been reorganizing. I have to balance the space between tools, wood, and other storage and of course cars!!

    I have now grown in tools and bench space which is great but have eaten into wood storage (I am a terrible hoarder). Added to that I have to pay for some recent tool purchases and some upcoming ones – I really got to get myself a DC!! Bottom line is I am going to sort through my wood stock this weekend and sell a bunch.

    Its obviously more of an option for folks here in Arizona but I am prepared to ship if you want. It would be great if some found a new home this weekend so I don’t need to re stack it. I don’t know exactly everything I have yet, hence this weekend’s sort through. All reasonable offers will be considered. If any of you Arizonan BT3’rs want to come over this weekend you could pick up a bargain. If you would like to help with my sort through I could be even more generous 

    I do want to keep some for upcoming projects and when I know exactly what I have and what’s for sale I will post more info. All is well aged (some of the walnut is 40+ years) lots of great figure amongst the bunch. What I do know is…….

    I have at least 700 Bd/ft total, made up of …………..

    Alder
    Ash
    Basswood
    Cedar
    Cherry
    Mahogany
    Maple – hard
    Maple – Soft
    Oak – white Qtr sawn
    Poplar
    Pine
    Vertical grain Pine
    Walnut

    I have everything from 2/4 – 12/4 in lengths from 3ft – 10ft and widths from a few inches to 14”.

    If anybody is interested PM or email me and I will send further details as I get them, especially if you want to come over this weekend – even more especially if you want to help 

    tough when you have to decide between tools or wood...

    If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

        Not really, in this case I can take some of the money from selling wood and turn it into new tools. I want a DC as I am fed up using a vac. I am also looking at Band saws. I dont really have the room and had used a friends who lived nearby - now he has gone and moved - the RAT!!

              I got through sorting a chunk of it yesterday. It was a useful exercise for me anyway to see what i've got so here is where I'm at at what and how much.

              As I mentioned I am NOT liquidating, simply selling some off to cut down on storage and to try and raise some funds for some new tools. I havent got to specific pricing however deals I will make - a lot of this is nice stuff. I was thinking around 40% off store prices and of course there's no tax so theres another 8% saving. All resonable offers considered.

              This is probably easier for Arizonans but if you want me to ship I can find prices.
