Dan Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 hey im looking for some one from California. im looking to get pine cones that i can mount on my lathe. I looked them up on ebay and people are asking like 7.50 each and that seems crazy. hate to pay what people are asking for them when they litterly just walked outside side and pick them up. im looking for sugar pine or coulter pine cones. the large pine cones that i can mount on my lathe and turn into pens. if you live in california and are willing to send me a box of them message me and maybe we can work something out to where i can buy them from you for the trouble. or maybe i we can swap material.

Steve T Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 We have 3 pines hanging over our back fence that I would gladly send the cones from .. and the loads of pine needles but alas they are the wrong breed of pine, I suspect possibly radiata/Monterey or something similar with short cones ... I'm in Riverside county and haven't seen the types of pines you're looking for so probably more a northern California breed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted January 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 yes they are from north california and you would not miss them them if you had the tree. the pine cones are anywhere from 6-24inches long and can weigh as much as 5 lbs. you would need a wheel barrel to move a load of them.
