Awesome Dakota, thanks! I'll message to see if I can pay shipping or send you something to trade.
Nice technique Nathan, good to know! Unfortunately there is a limited selection of fresh mushrooms here (usually just button, portabello, and shitake). I'm not sure any of these get me excited enough to try, also not quite as easy to grow at home.

These are /quite/ easy to isolate at home, using a few cents worth of
mushroom tissue from your local grocery store's bulk section.
Grab a scalpel/straight-razor, some alcohol, few jars of sterile
water, and a flame source. dunk the mushroom in alcohol/bleach... then
rinse several times with sterile water (pour water over mushroom chunk
so it falls into a waster jar), then like you're a lumberjack milling
a nice board from a tree... cut faces on the tissue (CLEANING the
blade with alcohol and a flame ON EACH CUT). Remember that any surface
contaminants will drag with the blade during each cut, after you've
squared up the faces, take another layer or two off (again with a
clean blade each time) then just plop a layer/chunk down onto PDA and
you should be good-to-go.
