Oregon White Oak
« on: February 24, 2012, 06:25:41 pm »
im going out to cut a few stave probably looking at about 2-3'' in diameter 68'' at the longest. these oaks have been growing(barely) on a solid rock surface and they've been the same size since i was 7 yrs old so im guessing there going to have paper thin rings, grows right next to the Columbia river. im gonna have 2 up for grabs. ill trade for whatever you think is appropriate. stave, sinew, points, shoe laces....whatever. i just like to share lol
so hit me up with a PM.

Elktracker im cuting them from Goble :P
