    There was a stall at the Fairyhouse market last weekend selling them, not sure what exactly, but noticed them near the entrance.

    I've been a to a couple of meetings of chapters of the Irish Woodturners Guild and they set up a mobile shop with all kinds of tools, accessories and about 20-30 blanks. Quite reasonably priced too and nice stuff.

    Pop along to your local chapter and see! If the shop isn't there, they also take phone orders and will tell you what the next meeting they will be at is.
