hmmmm, wonder if he'd ship to Canada???
Well... he shipped three blanks to Ireland
so "up North" shouldn't be a problem for him
Can only concur with the above comments - Gary's a true gent and does deals based on "gentleman's agreement" kinda thing. I wanted him to hold off on sending the blanks until he got the money I posted but he said "...you post the money and I'll post the blanks because we're both gentlemen aren't we? That's how we do things...". Man, I never prayed so hard for my letter to get to it's destination before in my life!! hehehe
One blank he chose for me was an inside split and (as he said on the phone at the time) it's clean... VERY clean!! No knots or pin knots in it at all! I haven't even begun to start on that one - I'm waiting til I get a permanent set-up before finishing it off. Another blank he chose is a spliced blank made up of sister billets and, though he also sent me skins to back it with, I'll probably leave it unbacked as it's a beautiful flecked kinda osage.
In short... if'n ya cain't cut an' split yer own osage... Gary's tha Man to talk to!!
