Not sure if i am selling any, i am sure the prices i would have to charge to make building these profitable or even to break even would be embarassingly absurd. Each one ties up my small mill for about 5 days and then takes about 6 hours of hand work to get finished and polished. There is no stain or finish on the wood, it is just high polished hardwood. I am working on a bunch of other wooden one-offs, maybe if i don't get completely burnt out on sanding i'll make some more to sell or trade. The walnut version is a 3 inch ball that stands about 3.5 inches high. The Purple heart version is slightly smaller. proabably just over 3 inches tall. i've got a brass set for you, right here |

Those two are not that rare, the golden brown one is walnut and the other is purple heart which is a pretty common central and south american wood. I do have some beautiful exotics that i have used in the past to make jewelry. |

Can I get the Frankenstein design in Koa wood? I can get the wood so pm what it will cost if it is possible. I love your dog toys but I don't have a dog so I think these are for me if possible. |
