I Need sinew. I Offer yew, vine maple, fir shafts,
« on: January 16, 2012, 02:13:25 pm »
I am looking for sinew.  I would trade a good yew stave for a decent stack of elk leg or back sinew.  Deer back or leg sinew too if it were a sizable load. I also have to offer vine maple staves, oregon ash staves, douglas-fir shafts (Surewood Shafts). I would prefer back sinew to be unprocessed, and leg sinew could be processed or not.

How many deer leg pieces constitute a sizeable load? I would love to get my grippers on some vine maple.

I've got a bunch of whitetail back sinew, unprocessed. I'll send a PM and perhaps we can work something out.

Sorry for the delay guys.  Busy day.  I have staves going out to Halverson, tenbrook, and possibly Eric tomorrow.  I am looking for about 10 clean deer back sinews or 20 leg sinews for a vine maple stave, and 12 deer back sinew or 24 leg sinew for yew stave. As for leg sinew I would be looking for full length 10-12" pieces. 

Pearl Drums, I have a nice vine maple stave held for you if you want to trade. 

Wirwicki, my longer (70+) yew staves are going fast, and I need to take count, but I still have some nice yew staves in the 60-70" range and if anyone is interested in a short wide, flat-crowned piece of yew for a northwestern native style paddle bow, then I have a couple of those ready too. 

All above wood is recently cut.

Ok I have heard back from Mirwiki now.  I need to close this trade offer.  Of course Pearl Drums you can get back to me if you still want that VM.  Thanks everybody.
