Thumbs up local suppiers list

Hi I am new to this area. From Texas originally. I have started a small company doing various wood related projects with goal of having a cabinet shop some day. I am looking for wood, hardware, ect.suppliers. I have found Charlotte Hardwood which has some stuff. Does any one have a general list of places to buy materials. Or send me your tidbits and I will compile them into a list and share them back with all that participate.


Thanks for the help!

PS I live in the charlotte metro area. I would enjoy meeting other wood workers in the area as well, Maybe breakfast some Saturday.

I'm not from the area, but thought I would give you a bump to see if anyone has input. I do know most of the active people on here are closer to the Triangle, but who knows...

Re: local suppiers list

The hardwoodstore of NC is about the best priced place I have found.

http://www.hardwoodstore.com

In Gibsonville, near Greensboro, about an hour from Raleigh.

I saw a thread in another forum that has loads of praise of this store.

Re: local suppiers list

For sheet goods try Diamond Hill Plywood. Our cabinet shop orders products from the Greensboro location regularly.

www.diamondhillplywood.com 3101 Parkside Dr. 704-392-0305

For hardware A-Ventures, Inc. carries pulls, hinges, slides,etc.

A-Ventures, Inc. 4021 Sentry Post Rd. 1-800-798-2291

Don't know much about these but they might help:
www.mcgeelumber.com
www.blackhawkhardware.com

Welcome to NC!

Re: local suppiers list

SawmillNC is in Iron Station (near Lincolnton)


If you're trying to compile a list here, don't forget Wall Lumber (Mayodan, NC). I haven't been there, but I know people who are happy with them. Also Catawba Hardwoods in Marion, NC. I don't think they have a web site, but here is some contact info I found (not even sure if this is accurate):

Name:
Catawba Hardwoods & Dry Kiln

Contact:
Mike Marsh

Address:
PO Box 1122
Marion, NC

Phone:
828-724-4922

Fax:
828-724-9323

Email:
catawba@wnclink.com


They have a warehouse here in Hickory also - I use them for some hardwoods and mostly for sheet goods.


There is also a Woodworkers Supply in Graham, NC

1125 Jay Lane
Graham, North Carolina
27253
Phone: (336) 578-0500
Fax: (336) 578-1401


And don't forget the Klingspor's Woodworking Shops. They have shops here in Hickory, and also in Charlotte and Raleigh, IIRC.

That's all I can think of right now.

Re: local suppiers list

I've bought from them before. Nice enough guys, huge selection. Great prices. The only thing is to be sure you call adhead before you travel up there, they got a little miffed at me for just showing up and wanting to pick through their stock. I think they let me do it only because I travelled from Raleigh. I can understand that though, and don't blame them. But, I'll have to say, with today's gas prices, I can't justify going the extra distance beyond going to The hardwood store of NC to get to Mayoden. But if you're close to them, I'd give them a shot.

Re: local suppiers list

I bought 400 bd ft of Walnut from them for the cabinets I'm currently making. The prices were very good and I had the material shipped to a local freight terminal. I couldn't have driven there and back with my trailer for what shipping cost. Very quick turnaround on the order and their grading seems to be accurate.

I've been impressed with Wall lumber in Mayodan. They have a pretty good selection and the prices seem reasonable.

Re: local suppiers list

I've bought wood from a company that I believe is around the triangle. The web site is www.ncwood.com. He's been great to work with -- hope this helps.

Re: local suppiers list

Hi Folks,


The boss suggested that maybe I post. Thanks for the link Cathy! I truly haven't had much time to post here in the last few weeks, since I joined. We are in the process of getting our new 4,000 shop and 'store' up and running. For those of you who have never heard of us, I guess that is probably most of you. We sell turning stock mostly. We handle about 25 varieties of domestic woods, and for the last 6 months or so have branched out to include Exotics.

As part of our move we just took delivery of about 20,000 pounds of exotics. We will have them sorted out and on the shelf, if anyone wants to come and browse, give us about 2 weeks.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

Gary

Re: local suppiers list

Cathy, I couldn't find much info on what they carry or do on the website, but I just noticed that NCWood has just become a member so hopefully he will enlighten us in the BUY and Sell area as to what he can offer, we need some good wood sources here in the Raleigh area. Thanks for the tip. Dave
