Rockler Woodworking
« on: June 05, 2014, 08:35:55 am »
I do small projects small Toys and Puzzles for my Grandkids mainly. I'm starting to get into making custom knife handles. I saw a hardwood assortment on Amazon (from Rockler Woodworking) 20lbs for $29.99. I thought I'd give it a shot. I was very happy in my assortment I got
1 8"x8" 1/8" Walnut
1 8"x6" 1/8 Mahognany
Several pieces of 4/4 Walnut vering widths and lengths up to 14" long
3 pieces of Padauck all 4/4 stock up 14" 1x3 and 1x4
I 6"x6" 3/4" Honduras Mahognany I not sure what I'm going to do with it but it is beautiful. Probably make a grip for my 45 LC.
1 6"x6" 3/4" Maple
2 1x4x4/4x12" White Oak
2 pieces of 8/4 stock Mahognany and Red Oak (Great for small Boxes)
1 6/4 Poplar
1 5/4 Birch
So that's my list if it helps anyone who does small projects like me. I will buy from them again. Great for making small boxes, knife handles, and toys.

Sounds good.  I'm not sure where you get your knives, but if you watch the sales at Woodcrafter's they periodically have all of the sizes on sale for about $10 each.  I bought several a year or so ago and used my scrollsaw and pattern bits on my router table to make the scales (handles).  I gave all but 1 out as gifts and have that one for my own use.
