I am poor.  I have 2 Osage staves,1 Mulberry stave.  Billets of both 'orange and M'berry.
Cedar, cherry, and oak planks.
Hickory and maple backing strips
Not many of each, sniff, sniff.
Oh, and one puny chokecherry limb. Sob, sob.

I forgot about a nice yew stave that Keenan gave me.  I'm holding on to that one until I am a little more experienced.

Yew is hard to come by in Southern Indiana.  I'll hone my skills on osage first.

I have a single osage stave, some decent red oak boards, and about 7 bows worth of super straight ipe boards. soon to come though is a little bit of juniper and some oak in stave form.

Well... i've just done the same thing as you Del. I had to make some solid racks that hang from the rafters. A friend of mine came round and saw how much wood I had above my vice and joked that one day there would be a headline in the paper 'man buried under tons of wood' - it got me thinking...
