So we dug down deep in the wood pile and found 8 more sets of these Port Orford Cedar tops. I really enjoy them. They are stiffer than WRC, light, have great tap tone and are a dream to work with. (They smell pretty spectacular too, like fresh ground pepper).

To let more folks try them we decided to run a dutch auction for these. For $50 we will send you a AAA quality top and is perfect in every way. (This is about 50% off regular price)

You really should try these, they are nice.

These sets are really the last of what we have so you should grab them fast. This is an excellent price.

I purchased a blank for a carved back from Vince, tight grain and beautiful POC.

Hey Brock.....

One month ago today my son and I (via Kyle) purchased a set of Port Orford on the dutch auction and payed immediately via PayPal.

We have not received it yet - and I am needing it for a build.

Where's the wood? Has it been shipped?

I purchased and paid for 2 sets the auction before this one and havne't recieved anything. (June 23rd) It's took a long time for me to get stuff before, but I've always gotten it.

Edit/Added, I don't have mine earmarked for a build, and I'm not in a hurry. Please send the Burners theirs before mine if that will help them get theirs quicker.

I have not gotten my sets either. Looks like slow shipping has returned to the forefront!
