As most of you know Roger Vardy is my woods person. His wood is not only dry, but it is seasoned. http://www.rogervardystockwood.com/ I have no trouble getting his wood from Australia and it sure doesn't break the bank. | ||

You know Allen, I really don't remember other than thinking is was very reasonable. Email Roger as he is very up front. | |||

I like the stock selector setup, slick. I also like that you can select by weight. Just be sure to press apply at the bottom after selecting your criteria. I like QR041. Red | |||

Here's another plus for Roger...Say you buy a blank from him today and three years from now you want one to match..All he needs is the blank number. | |||

I wish he would put his really good stuff on the web site. A few of the blanks were nice and they were priced pretty fair. Always looking for that one in a million blank!! | |||

Butch, I notice his prices are in AUS Dollars so I assume that's where he is located. Do you know what the import requirements and shipping costs might be? | |||

Roger takes care of all shipping and import stuff. I just pay him and he delivers. His normal shipping costs to the USA is $70USD. The higher priced blanks, Roger may be able to work a little with you on shipping. | |||

Roger's site is much improved. I really like the new method of sorting blanks. Question for those that have used Roger's Australian walnut... I have read on these forums as well as in a couple other sources that the Australian variety of walnut tends to be heavier, harder & denser than other varieties. Furthermore the Aussie trees achieve these characteristics in far fewer years of growth than any other vaiety of walnut. Can anyone comment on these claims? Interested in hearing your thoughts. Best, Dave | |||

I have used Roger's wood and the NZ walnut from Brian Kerr...The best woods ever. I stopped looking at my native woods of California neither English nor Claro...They do not compare. | |||

Holland & Holland does not purchase Vary walnut without good reason. I have used a lightweight fancy exhibition marble cake Vardy blank [that was rather soft], for a lightweight 270win.[it checkered up surprisingly well at 22 lpi] The somewhat harder denser fiddle[c36] Vardy blank I purchased, was used for the .300H&H you see below. he also has some really heavy and dense "hard as the hobs of hell" blanks. that reminds me, I have some long lingering credit with Roger for an exhibition blank.  | |||
