Cost? That shouldn't be hard stock to find through the usual wood suppliers in the Triangle area, unless you are looking for something unusual. Check the floating menu for a list of Wood Suppliers that we have compiled.

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

Name: Dennis City: Chapel Hill State: NC County: Orange Join Date: Jan 2006 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 0.00 over 30 days | Dave, thanks for the reply. I'm looking for something a little cheaper
than the local wood supply stores. I only buy there when I absolutely have to. I have about 800 bd. ft. of rough sawn red oak, 200 bd. ft. of soft maple, and 100 bd. ft. of poplar, plus another 600 bd. ft that I've used that I and my sawyer salvaged from some trees that had fallen down 3-4 years ago. It's "log run" quality, but it only cost me about $0.25 per bd. ft. plus about 3-4 days of my time. Great bargin for me! So, I'm looking for someone who may have done something similar to what I've done, but who might be willing to sell some. |

Under Important Info is the list of local wood suppliers http://www.ncwoodworker.net/index.php?page=woodsup
I don't know if you'll find prices like you mentioned...that's a gloat for sure. But there are several saywers listed and that going to be your best bet for cheap lumber. Also some of the wholesale like McEwin and Horizon F.P. have decent prices for large orders, and top quality stock.
If you have any issues working the features of the site please post them in the How Do I forum and hey will be quickly answered, and that will benefit someone who thought that they were the only one having difficulties and afraid to post about it.
