Fellow OLFers:
I have dimensioned Red spruce bracewood roughly 2" wide by 1" thick by 22" long. All of my bracewood is hand split from billets to minimize grain run out. The bracewood that's for sale was cut in January 2004 and identical to what I was selling at the last ASIA symposium. Normal price is $9.99 but for OLF members the price is $7.50 per piece.

Please email me or PM me if you're interested.

That bracewood was really really nice if my memory serves me....and a good price. If you're a newbie builder, I recommend getting some of this stuff. You won't regret it. If you've been building for awhile, then you know this is a good deal, and I'm sure you're already contacting Steve to get some....

Ooo....tempting. Very tempting. The stuff I got back in June is slated to get used on the next build, but I'm finalizing an order of a bunch of Euro stock from a more local supplier. Still, hmm...have to think about this one!

I got some Euro Bracing Stock from Madinter and it was incredible, very very good stuff.

...that would be where I'm ordering from. And getting 4 or 5 Madrose tops. I figure I'll blow all the cash I earned in the last three weeks, between this and the new PC (and I know which of the two I'll have warm fuzzies about...)
