turning blanks

[marcros]

I wanted a few blanks to have a play with before everywhere closed.

Snainton were very helpful, and postage cost was sensible. Thought I would give them a recommend:

for ref, I got 6 8x2 bowl blanks, 5 short spindle blanks, and a couple of tins of lacquer. postage was a fiver. many places it is double that as soon as there are blanks on. the cost of blanks themselves seemed good too, although I dont buy many. the rippled sycamore I chose was cheaper than the non rippled sycamore elsewhere!

Did you order by phone? ... that website really isn't great.

I emailed.

I think that they are set up so that you tell them what you want- phone, email etc and they email a PayPal invoice. May not be state of the art but it did the job.
