These are Schaffs rotary cut multi-lam maple, capped with 9mm Delignit. Double plank, 19x58 Single plank, 7.5<11.5x58 Until I sell enough of these to put a 20" planer into the budget, I can only offer the double blocks in approximately 1.6" thickness. I can plane the singles to whatever you want under 1.6" Delignit 9mm capping material only, for pinblocks. 19x58 (double) 7.5<11.5x58 (single) Delignit 9mm capping leftovers, for bridge capping, tooling, inlays, or whatever. 9.5x25 36x26.5 For those unfamiliar with this stuff, who understandably don't want to commit to the price of a block to find out if they like it or not, I'm offering 2-1/2"x4"x1.6" samples of capped block for $10, including mailing. This will give you enough acreage to fit a dozen or so pins to test the feel and make an informed judgment. I really like these blocks, and I think you will too. I'd be happy to supply you some.
