Holly-wood The Wood, not the City

[CocoboloCowboy]

Have a friend who make PENS, he does this as a time killer, he send the PEN to TROOP. Was wondering where he can buy Holly Squares, 3/4" x 3/4, by 5-1/2".

Non of his suppliers sells the small blocks.

Can he buy a larger piece and then cut it to size?

I have seen Gilmer with them in the past.

The reason I asked about the smaller sizes is normally largr pieces fetch a higher price. Plus he has no big saw, just a Hobby JIG SAW.

He just needs to look for 1" boards which are usually closer to 3/4" thick and cut them down. His jig saw will do it easily with Holly if he mounts a guide to it at 3/4". They may not be popular enough in Pens for someone to have stocked them.
