Hey guys. Just wondering if anyone is interested in some premium claro walnut.

I have several blocks of it. This is probably the best walnut I've ever seen.

I will be sending some to K&G for stabilizing but thought I'd offer it here for anyone that likes it unstabilized (like me) first.

Natural, unstabilized. Dry and ready to use. Big solid blocks......no defects.

Figure is intense, tight and goes all the way through each block. This stuff has Koa-like curl. There is not a bad block in the whole lot.

Each block is at least 1 7/8" x 5 1/4" x 1 1/8".

$45 each block to your door in the US. I'll take paypal, check or money order (funds must clear prior to shipping.)

Pics show fronts and backs of blocks.

Blocks 1-5 Fronts:

Blocks 1-5 Backs:

Blocks 6-10 Fronts:

Blocks 6-10 Backs:

Here are 12 different blocks. I only have the fronts of these pictured but the figure goes all the way through these too.

John,

That's some nice walnut. I would recommend using it "as is" as claro walnut doesn't lend itself to stabilizing well.

Beautiful material, John.... not in the cards right now after spending almost four weeks in ABS school but...appreciate you putting it out there. Maybe next time.
