I’ve been a woodworker since a young age and have always hadan interest in wood and trees. About 30 years ago I got curious about somelesser-known woods and made up some dried samples of them. I soon arrived at astandard sample size and made samples of every wood I could get my hands on. Awood dealer introduced me to the International Wood Collectors Society which iscurrently celebrating its 75th year. If you love wood – join! I joined as a life member and, as a woodworker, madestandard 1/2 X 3 X 6” samples from the exotic woods I had purchased and soldthem to members of the club. They liked them and wanted more so I obliged. Ihave field collected woods from 48 states and a few foreign countries and amconstantly seeking out woods new to me for making samples. I have produced manythousands over the past 30 years and have a personal collection of about 7,000different species. Until now I sold primarily to IWCS members, but also toschools, institutions, government agencies, etc., around the world. Today, Ihave too much inventory of many species and will be offering seven differentsets, each different, of about 40 pieces. These are accurately sized and sandedto final thickness and width and are labeled same as or similar to the photos.These specimens were originally collected by wood and botany professionals,then by the general public. Aside from collecting, these can be used for knifescales, pistol grips and a variety of craft items. Besides these sets I offerindividual items from one piece to my entire inventory.
