Question: Do you take orders over the phone?
Answer: Not at this time. Selling this wood is a side project for me in addition to the other wood working projects I do as a living. I have a significant quantity of laminates on hand and thought I would offer it to the wood working community. However answering phones all day to take small orders is not really an option for me time wise right now. I realize that a few orders will be lost because of this but it is a necessity. You can get a hold of me at laminatedblanks@gmail.com but please don't submit a question that is answered here in the FAQ. Thanks!

Answer: Yes, to order with check or money order please list the color size and quantity of the blanks you want in an email to Laminatedblanks@gmail.com I will get back to you with a printable invoice that you can send with check or money order. It may take up to 24 hrs to get back to you with a printable invoice so please be patient. Please note that check or money order orders need to be at least $30 minimum order. Thanks
