Don't worry Martin, I got some for you...
I have one more set like the OM sets that Jim got. I was saving it for myself, but I'll let you have it. I have over a dozen in my stash anyway. I'll post it tomorrow with a "hold" on it for you.

Don, youre an absolute gentleman. I'll take the set but only if youre sure you can spare it.

Many Thanks
Martin

Don - If that's a big stretch for you, Martin can have one of mine. They are likely to sit for quitea while anyway.

Jim youre a gentleman too. Thanks for the offer but you got in first on the sets so they're yours. If Don is ok parting with one of the sets he had ear marked for his own use then I'll take it. If not ok then I'm quite happy with the other sets I have on order.

Cheers and thanks to both of you

Martin

Trust me...I have more than enough wood. More wood than I can use in my lifetime. It's not the least a big deal for me. Sometimes I just decide "I might keep this one..." and throw one on a shelf. That happens way too often!

Don is like the guy who owns the pet store, falls in love with the animals and can't bare to part with them.

Brock that is the perfect analogy for Don! But I'm beginning to think he's getting better at finding new homes for his wood...at least the sets I have coming to me indicate so.

I notice that set of brw you are teasing me with keeps going up in price.

If you are not careful you will price yourself right out of the market.

Hey, those cyber-bidders keep outbidding you on it. It's up to $13,500. I would have thought it was over the market value of that wood, but they keep going higher.
