Im not sure if it would be of use to anyone, but I have a piece of Wormy Chestnut board that measures approx, 2 feet x 10inches wide, and 1.5 inches thick. Dont know as I do not turn calls, if it would benefit anyone, but if anyone would happen to be interested, just send me a pm. I could definitly see some good strikers coming from this wood or even a box lids or whole box calls.
In the right hands it'll make for some fine pots too! :icon_thumright:
If it solid it will make some good pots. Not thick enough for a box. It would have to pretty dense to make good strikers. All the chestnut that I have worked with wouldnt make a good striker. I might be interested in it for some pots. What are asking for it? Do you have any pictures of it?
magnolia,
upon looking I actually have 2 pieces that fit the measurements that I listed in the first post. Im not sure how dense the wood is, I have no way to guage that. I can tell you that since the wood was cut, it has been kept dry in the basement and in close proximity to a dehumidifier. Not looking to make a profit off this. Check your PM's.

pm me price if you want it gone..
To all who may be interested. I have 2 pieces of the wood. As mentioned before it is dry and has been kept in my basement. I was a bit wrong on the measurements. I have some photos of the 2 pieces of wood. All measurements shown in pictures are same for both pieces of wood

Both pieces here shown

Both pieces measure just shy of 24'' long.
