Picked up a good deal on ebay a couple weeks ago. The seller had just 8 feedbacks and showed only a couple blurry pics, I'm guessing that's why no one else bid on it. I took a chance with a 19$ bid and twice that for shipping, so for just under 60 I got this 43 pound dense and gemmy chunka dino bone!

Thanks for looking!

I Wanna Rock!!!

That's an awesome looking gemmy piece and that's also a terrific price. I've seen similar looking stuff at our local show for about $10 or more a pound.....Mel

Sometimes taking a chance pays off.

Yeah Paul it's a bit too big for the old WF lol. I think it's too big for my 18" saw too, but I don't plan on trying it any time soon.

hey cool beefjello. That thing is a hog leg. This dino lover is jealous. I like it the way it is in the pic, left rough. Really great colors. Things got mojo.
This is a cutters dream, hopefully you dont ever get tempted to cut it. I think this one is best left uncut.
You should just keep letting it live out its life on the porch next to your evening chair, undisturbed.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
