Hi there

I have currently bought some stropping paste for the first time to experiment on, currently I'm just applying it to a bits of clean leather left over from time I have been making my own strop. To strop I usually just put the piece of leather on one of my hones and it works ok, however I want something dedicated for the pastes. I have been in for a hunt for piece of oak which I could use to make paddle strop/ bench strop but I was unsuccessful. I don't rally have any wood working tools so I cant just buy a 2x4x12 hunk of timber. I was wondering would anyone could cut me a piece of oak 2.5x1x12 on a band saw. I will cover the cost for material, postage and labour or I could possibly hone a razor or two in return. If anyone could help please either post here or PM me.

Regards Rafal
