Robin Babiuk of Cloud Forest Products has donated this wonderful set of Yellow Siris. The set measures:

Back 18" X 24"
Sides 33" x 5 1/4"

Robin has posted on his site that this wood compares favorably to koa.

The retail value on this set is $100. I mistakenly said $150 initially.

Good luck.
The auction ends next Wednesday (24th) at noon, EST.

My bad... this has a retail value of $100, not $150.

Retail value of a $100.00 now but i have a gut feeling that this wood will sell for more in the future, taps really nice and i love the golden color, it's just sad i can't afford to jump in on this awesome set!

OK! There are two bids of 50 dollars (US I think). As a sporting proposition I will bid 55 (USD). Someone has to beat that!
