Bad Dogs Burl Source strives to be your top choice for great burls of all
sizes and shapes. Let us help you find what you are looking
for.
Who is behind the Bad Dogs Burl Source?
As of Febuary 2008,
we acquired
Skip Bellock's (of Utah) burl inventory as well as some of his knowledge which has
been invaluable to us. After back surgery, Skip had to give up
selling burls but he will continue to create beautiful art work. A link to
his gallery can be found under Quick Links. So, if some pictures on our
web site look familiar, they should, they were transferred from his
site. We strive to provide the same great service and selection
of burls as Skip did.
Who is "we"? I am Robert
Doyle, my wife is Donna, and our two bad dogs get top
billing after 4 remotes, a key board, a footrest, several
shoes, etc .... Our home and business are
located in eastern Oregon. We are working directly
with suppliers overseas as well as here in the USA to
provide high quality burls and woods. We plan
to specialize in Australia as well as Pacific Northwest
species. Our goal is to deal in volume so that we can
provide burls to you at a great price with shipments
arriving routinely so that our supplies never go stale.

Our
Policy of Service:
Customer
satisfaction is our foremost concern as is providing quality burls. We will make every effort
to ship your order as expeditiously as possible and in a manner
that minimizes damage. The web site will be routinely updated so
that it remains current with all the latest
material. If you are looking for something special, let us know
and if we don't have it, we'll try and help you find
it or specifically request it in our next order.
If a particular piece is
no longer available, we will offer to substitute a similar piece but only upon
your approval. We will be happy to answer any questions (to the
best of our ability). If
you phone and get voice mail, please leave a message and we will call you
back.
Burls:
All burls are sold as pictured, which is
debarked, green - partially air dried unless stated otherwise. Burls
coming from Australia, as a requirement of our import permit, have been
fumigated. We offer turning burls and blanks as well as
carvers. Don't let "ugly" faced burls scare you away as they can turn into
masterpieces.
Burls are
sold based on their original green weight with the bark still on. Weight
loss from harvest weight to debarked and dry can vary greatly. Some burls,
even within the same species have a thicker, more resinous bark, so that two
specimens of the same harvest weight could differ markedly in weight after
debarking. Burl shape also affects the bark to weight ratio. Some burls have more sapwood (which contains more moisture)
on the edge and can lose more weight when drying.
Most burls, particularly Australian burls, are sold to us based on the original harvest
weight and the only realistic means is to use the same
figure throughout the sale process eliminating all these variables.
