Wanting to build an osage selfbow

I've been wanting to build an osage selfbow for sometime now and just haven't. I've built wood and glass lam bows but there is something about an osage selfbow that i love. That being said, I'm looking to buy more or less a bow blank. I don't have much experience with staves so i want to buy an osage stave that is mostly laid out and has a solid ring that has been chased. Can anyone point me in the right direction of where to buy something like this? Thanks
