All my redwood comes from Humboldt County, California...the heart of the redwood country. I used to live there and had opportunity to work in the big wood day, falling, skidding, loading and hauling those huge logs...an experience I'll never forget.
The wood on this page will be for turning or small projects that might require a "board" for flatwork. Pen blanks, knife scales, small things will have their own pages.

pendingonbm15...................R1, $25.00 + $9.00 to ship = $34.00 total. Redwood burl block. Dry pics show all sides. Note these are all bandsaw cut except for the first pic which has old finish on it and the bottom half. Sanding would make the grain show much better but redwood sawdust and I don't get along well any more. Years of cutting old growth may have had something to do with that. ; ) See measurements in pics. A nice block with enough burl to make it interesting and at a good price.

Those are the center of the birdseye burl eyes that are parallel to the large face. Look at the edge pics to show burl the best. That could be what shows if you make a small bowl.

Pic 4 shows an old screw hole...no idea how deep but it'll turn off.
sold to Tom.....................................R4, $36.00 + $6.00 to ship = $42.00 total. Redwood burl blocks cut for the knife makers and gun grip guys. Dry and misted pics show both sides. See measurements in pics.
R17 $25.00 + $8.50 to ship = $33.50 total. Redwood curly/figured spindle blocks. Some figure...not a lot but maybe enough for whatever you want to make. Note the bottom blank has more figure...note also some very thin checks typical of curly redwood. Checks happen where the "top" of the curl is cut off where it becomes almost "end" grain. Dry and misted pics show all sides pretty well. See measurements in pics.
pendingonpbr126.............R15 $24.00 + $9.00 to ship = $33 total. Redwood burl bookmatched thinwood. Dry and misted pics show them pretty well. Bandsaw cut...not sanded so the figure detail doesn't show as well. See measurements in pics. There's some very nice lace figure in some of them. Note the "brown" wood is spalted/punky....will make a nice color contrast if you can save it. Stabilize, cast, could make some amazing boxtops or coasters.
R16 $24.00 + $8.50 to ship = $32.50 total. Redwood burl bookmatched thinwood. Dry and misted pics show them pretty well. Bandsaw cut...not sanded so the figure detail doesn't show as well. See measurements in pics. There's some very nice lace figure in some of them. Note the "brown" wood is spalted/punky....will make a nice color contrast if you can save it. Last pic shows some slabs really wet......typical of how they can look with finish.
pendingonbm1119................R7, $28.00 + $8.50 to ship = $36.50 total. Redwood burl 15/16" thick slabs. Dry and misted pics show them pretty well. Bandsaw cut...not sanded so the figure detail doesn't show as well as when they're finished. Resaw for some interesting bookmatched pairs. They are 3 3/8" wide and average about 6" long. Note the "brown" wood is spalted/soft.
pendingonrr616.............R8, $28.00 + $8.50 to ship = $36.50 total. Redwood burl 1" thick slabs. Dry and misted pics show them pretty well.
