Ayup all,

Looking for a good source of stabilized wood for some UKPK re-handles. stabilized birch burl or something pretty like coolibah burl would be nice. Paypal preferred.

Thanks,

Tried to fill out their contact form and it just fails with an error. Plus they dont seem to have much at all in stock.

Mickwardell and gortwood9188. I've also had some stuff free postage from the us.

[EDIT]

Mick also does a nice line in blades - obviously not via ebay. Always had good service.

I thimk theres a tutorial on here somewhere on how to stabilse wood yourself? Not sure where youd get the burls though. Ive only used brisa.

Hope this helps
