February flat rate box WOOD trade up SIGN UP THREAD

[Parker]

I know there will be a lot of folks that won't be able to participate in this, but we will give it a try anyways, and see what comes of it.

Medium flat rate box sounds good to me!  Fill it up with usable wood, not just small scraps.  (Though some figured small scraps should be welcomed to fill up corners of the box and such).

Either of these two boxes will be acceptable for mailing size.  You see here it will cost you $10.70 to mail this way.  The boxes will say "Medium Flat Rate Box" on the side of them.

Priority Mail Medium Flat Rate Box (FRB1)     $10.70     11" x 8-1/2" x 5-1/2"
Priority Mail Medium Flat Rate Box (FRB2)    $10.70    13-5/8" x 11-7/8" x 3-3/8"

Who ever I get, I plan on getting with them to ask what sizes of wood would best suit them, and I will go from there filling the box.  If you have that option, I would ask you to do that same.

I AM NOT asking folks to give away their secret stash of wood, but I also ask that you don't fill up a box full of straight grain oak or walnut.  Make the box exciting to open.  

Again......I know a lot of folks won't be able to play in this.  Maybe in the future we can do a single stick trade?

*If I get you, I have a few turkey call pot blanks that are better than straight grain wood, but not many.  If you are in to turning 1 1/4" or 1 1/2" calls......I could end up being your best friend.    I don't have the ability to square up the wood, but I've got some NICE stuff on the top shelf.

*You will be getting wood to the person on the list one above you.  For example with who has signed up so far......jcz will send wood to me.  Braz will send wood to jcz, etc.....  I will send wood to the last person that signs up.  The cutoff date for signing up will be the end of the day on February 9th (changed from the 14th due to lack of more folks signing up).  I don't think we need to wait any longer than that.

Im in. I can come up with a few extra pieces of wood to send out.

[Braz]

First, is this this sign up spot for the trade? If so, I'm in on it. Secondly, could you give the dimensions of the "Medium" size flat rate box so there is no confusion. Sounds like fun. Just copy and paste the list in your post and add your name. That way we will easily be able to see who is in and who ISN'T!

I have edited my original post to reflect the box sizes.  I hope I'm not making this too hard of a thing.  I know those flat rate boxes are the cheapest way to ship wood by a ways.

Come on folks sign up for this. We all have a stash of wood that we can find some pieces in. It doesn't have to be super duper fancy smancy wood. As nice a stuff as you can part with, because, remember, you are going to be getting a nice stash also. By the way, I have already contacted jcz to see what kind of wood he perfers, flat stock, stick wood, etc. I don't want to send him flat stock for turkey calls if all he turns is duck calls. I would suggest all you do the same.

[madarchery]

I would but my variety selection is real small.  And not 100% dry.   So until I have ready to turn stock to trade out I am sitting out.

OK, got the box for jcz all loaded and taped up. I told him to take a picture of the contents and post it, but to do it after the final sign up date. I think we should all post pictures of the wood we receive.

[jcz]

Thanks Braz, Parker yours is on its way also! enjoy!

[Parker]

   Lets change the cutoff date to the end of February 9th.  We have not had a sign up in several days.  There is no reason for the last person to wait over a week longer than everyone else to get their wood.

[Braz]

Sounds good to me, since I have already mailed my box.    This was a great idea Parker. 

[Parker]

   I think Larry slept on this for a few days so he would get my top shelf stash.   

I know he will be able to make some NICE stuff out of it if he gets it.
