    I discovered a great local tool store today...

    Payne's Tool and Supply on Highway 55 in Durham (near where NC54 crosses Hwy 55). They are a locally owned business with two locations; one in Raleigh and one in Durham. Their primary market seems to be construction related, and their inventory is all professional grade tools; from what I...

    Local lumber source

    We found a man in the Forest City area who has a portable saw mill. He cut several trees for us and we were pleased with his service and prices. If anyone is looking for someone to cut downed trees into useful lumber let me know and I'll share his contact information.

    Using local air dried cedar - advice?

    I have an opportunity to acquire some locally harvested cedar. Looking for opinions on how I should proceed. The wood was cut about 10 years ago and has been stored semi-outside (basically in a covered lean-to) under tarp since then. It does not appear to have been stickered - just a pile of...

    Anyone get their tools from local blacksmiths?

    I'm just wondering if anyone here has gone the local blacksmith route to furnish your tools? I don't look forward to restoring old tools (or competing with collectors, price-wise). Some new tools seem to be at the price point where it seems more economic to just get a local blacksmith to make...

    Found a Local Source for Wood

    I needed a piece of 8/4 walnut today for some cutting boards. I didn't want to make the long drive to Wall's for one piece of walnut. I went to Klingspore's and they didn't have any 8/4 walnut. I did pick up some sandpaper I needed. I drive down highway 67 every day. I remembered seeing a...

    I get to visit a local turner.

    Hi Y'all, I was browsing the web looking for some classes on using the lathe or finding some local turners. I came across a fella in my same phone exchange just ten minutes from home. I emailed him asking if he would consider letting me pay him for some lessons to see if I would like turning or...

    Why not local products

    I have a lot of wood that will likely, eventually, become cutting boards. I know there are a lot of gift shops at the coast that sell wood items like cutting boards, bowls and spoons. I've thought about talking to some of the shop owners about selling mine in their shops. I don't have any made...

    Local, Ral, Sheet Steel Source?

    Anyone know of a local, Raleigh area, source for sheet steel? Perhaps other than Dillion Supply? I've got a bro looking for some 3/8" (preferred) or 1/2" thick sheets of AR400 or AR500 sheet steel. I guess the only requirement be that the sheets fit in a 1/2 ton pickup. TIA, Brian.
