I'll go out to Nephi on a Saturday and dig for 6-7 hours and if I'm lucky get two or three fist size pieces of this pet wood and maybe some small Palm. Two weeks ago we found a 5lb piece of pet wood, yet to be cut. That is pretty rare. It's really hard to get. I have maybe 10-12 lbs of rough now and who knows what's inside!
I would like to trade for material I can't collect in Utah. So I'll post when I get some stock built up.

P.S. I do know a fellow who has quite a bit of both the wood and Palm. Ill see if he would part with some and I'll post if so. I can't get any from him but I'm cheap lol

Yes, in that perspective, it does sound pretty pricey...  LOL

 Are you considering offering some? The brecciated wood looks especially wonderful.

That is some wild material. I would also be interested in obtaining some.
