Buying EZCut

From: greycrazy1 (greycrazy1@yahoo.com) | Date: 2004-04-01 19:34:52 UTC
Afternoon everyone!

I'm a new letterboxer, having just planted my first two boxes at
Turkey Run State Park in IN. (my favorite place in the ENTIRE
world!) If anyone finds them, please drop me a note and let me know
how I did. LOL

My question today is about buying EZCut. I've been doing
websearches, looking for the best (read, cheapest!) place to buy and
have it shipped. I'm a long way from good craft stores in central SC
and I find myself suddenly addicted to carving. My first two were
very simple but I'll keep working at it!

Good sources would be appreciated.

This sounds familiar I very quickly became addicted to the
carving. Have placed a couple boxes now & am anxiously waiting for
someone to find them so I can "see" how I did. Of course in my part
of the world I could be waiting a loooooong time.

I'm sure someone will give you the web address for ordering PZCut,
I don't have it handy at the moment. I ordered the B grade to save
a bit & found it quite satisfactory.

You got off to a great start if you hid them at Turkey Run! Hiding
a box in a great location is one of the things that can make or
break a box, and few places rank up there with Turkey Run. I'm not
sure I'd say it's my *favorite* place in the entire world, but it
certainly ranks in the top ten! =) Probably the best generally
unknown place in the world, though!

Hi GreyCrazy.

I've had good luck ordering things from Dick Blick online. I just
checked their site and they've got the following for EZCut blocks:
Box of 2, 4"x6", $3.59; Box of 2, 9"x12", $14.29.

They're at http://www.dickblick.com/. Do a search on "e-z-cut" and
you should find the blocks.

Hope that helps.

Shhhhhhh, we should be VEWWWWY VEWWWWY QUIET then.....

Turkey Run is a very very special place to me. I'm glad someone else
on the list recognizes it too. :-)

Someone go find my first box so I can find out if I did alright!!!
Now that I'm carving better I'll replace (or maybe just add!?) a
better stamp to the box next I go through.

I am....
