I just had to point this out: Hidden in the Shopsmith "Spring Project Days" catalog, among many other good deals, is a particularly good deal on lathe turning stock. Both spindle turning stock (555957) and bowl turning stock (522253) are available. I haven't used the spindle stock, but have made several very nice bowls from the bowl stock assortment. I received 10 pieces of various sizes and wood species, all well end-sealed and dried, and with no cracks. The wood species are a bit of a mystery, as they are not marked, but there is some beautiful figuring. For someone like me (in Montana), without local hardwood sources and few hardwoods to cut down, this is a real bargain.
Best wishes.

I found it. It's on the back of the order form, in center portion of the "Spring Project" catalog
