I'm not a Tumi Ishi block maker, but you did prompt me to use Google to find yet one more thing I had no idea existed

Another day and I'm little bit smarter. Of course, I'm 72 yo and still feel pretty ignorant at times.
Would be great for someone that has a both at a craft fair

They look to me like Pet rock's or blocks.

Those are made by simply holding the piece against a disk sander at random angles. The blocks shown on Amazon are made locally here from wood I sell from the Saint Louis Forest.
They are fun to play with. I have the record for our set of a tower nine tall. Most of my competitors were under ten years old.

Oh! ??? They don't have a bottle of Titebond out of the picture?

Before putting them to disk sander I’ve been knocking some of the corners off them on the bandsaw.
Took 5 sets of 11 blocks each to the craft show yesterday, sold four of them. Fifth one is also sold to a neighbor.

There is a good chance
Broccoli doesn’t like you either.
