Yesterday it was chilly, but the sun was shining in my shop (garage) I cleaned up the place and in the process, I picked up every scrap piece of exotic wood I could find. Some are left overs, some are old projects I stopped and the rest are odds and ends. I will make something out of most of it  and I hope to get some more wood soon. I don't go out to shop much, but I do go when the crowd isn't there, very early in the morning on a week day. I go pick what I want and get out quickly. I can order wood delivered, but I want to see what I buy first. I have all my Christmas gifts made, so I think that if the weather holds up, I'll go after Christmas or New Years.

I think I see at least a couple of ornaments in there!

I'm gonna try    My wife wants to go to the area where Rockler is located, so if there isn't many in there, I'll get some wood.

Looking forward to seeing what you make from these. You and I shop the same way.

 I went to Rocklers and have a new supply. I even found a piece of Yellow heart, which is on the endangered list and isn't suppose to be sold. It was buried under some boards and I was happy to get it.

Well I too am anxious to see results from the clean up. I did not know Yellowheart was endangered I think I have a 4 foot piece.
