Hi all I have been browsing most of the wood sites today in search of 4 pieces of wood.

I prefer a darker maple, but anything that will go nicely with an amber color liquid will work.

The wood has to be dry and free of splits. Size at least 2.5x2.5x8

I am still looking around on places like eBay but so far I am only finding wet stuff
.

Thanks

What about a glued up blank?

If I can get one that has grain that very closely matches, that wouldn't be a problem. As a matter of fact, iu have 2 here, but they are not long enough. Definitely wide enough, but not long enough.

Charles for small pieces you can dry them out in a microwave. I've tried this technique on a few occasions and I've not had any problems. I'll see if I can find the link I used and I'll send it to you.
