This showed up in the mail today from the Ukraine.
Very high grade Bog Oak. Carbon dated with ages from 1500 to 5500 years old.
It can be a big gamble importing woods from some countries.
When I was contacted by these guys in the Ukraine I was suspicious at first.
I asked about purchasing some sample material so I could see what it would be like first hand.
The wood arrived pretty quick and it is better than I expected.
Now I will send it to K&G to see how it does with stabilizing.
After that I will place a sizable order with these guys.
Looks like the oldest is the darkest.
But, I think I like the lighter stuff as well.
Sure it is only about 2 or 3,000 years old, but it looks good.
