I've got pine rosin.  It's hard and brittle like rock candy.  How much do you need?

What ever it would take to make up a good batch.  I have some beeswax and some charcoal, so I could wip some up.  Let me know what you want in exchange, and I will take whatever you don't need.  I have lots of hafting to do.

OK, I'll see how much I've got.  As for trade items, I'm always looking for backstrap sinew, hardwood shoots, and feathers.

Dang it Patrick, I need to find some of that too.  Do you find that around Midland?  Can I get it off juniper?  Maybe if I cut down a bunch I can get it at the lease.

George, I get it from an outfit in Canada...and the shipping is pricey.  I would get some from Eddie...or you can wait for me to bring some to Cross Plains.

 Thanks, Charlie. Like I said in the PM, I'll try and get the pitch in the mail tomorrow. My cup is full at work for a change.

No hurry on the pitch Mullet.  You have done enough for me already.  Thanks again.
