At the shows do you ever have completed kits for display purposes to show folks what they can build?  I think either some completed kit plugs or even atleast pictures might help some of those folks that may be a bit reluctent to buy, this way they see what they can build.

POC is the strongest cedar in the world, even better than AYC. It's commonly used to make arrows. It is a dense wood, white in color with sometimes a very thin sap line in it that has grain similar to AYC but much cleaner in most cases.  It's easy to machine like ayc. Similar all around. This stuff will soon be tough to come by as I brought a bunch in here.

It has a good dense growth structure similar to ayc. It sands smoother I think with less tear out. I like the action of poc plugs. You can do alot with it much like ayc. ayc is over rated...a nice piece of white pine or red cedar will work pisser. Poplar as well, but seal these extra good. Those will be your most buoyant woods inexpensively.

Scott,
         Did you notice the Bat tattooed on his side of neck? Jokers face on the back. The BatSign on the web of right hand...Lots of Ink...
Attracts a lot of attention during the summer, No shirt, Full" BatMan" hood with ears, riding a Full Dresser Harley, Hard Rock blasting away.
I was following him home, a cop stops him,asked; "What the Hell do you think your doing?
Batman says, "Of course... I'm fighting crime officer"!
Cop checked to make sure he was wearing eye protection, he was. Cop shook his head, drove off laughing.
A good friend.
