Im looking for a pair of knot-free osage billets for a new project. Looking for 30" or longer pieces. Thanks.

I got a few end grain boards at 53" each. What do you got for trade?

not exactly sure what an end grain board is? Do you have any pics?  I'm looking for something to chase a ring on for a takedown self bow.

At this point all I have is some dried sinew (needs to be pounded) and a decent sized prairie rattler skin. I may be able to find some more stuff to trade when I get home.

aaaaahhhh!!! Then I don't have what you're looking for then. What I have will need to be backed with either hickory or bamboo. Good luck on you hunt.

What kind and how much sinew you got?
