Wasn't sure where to post this but here goes.
I needed just a few longer boards to finish a project I'm working on so not knowing where to go I looked in the yellow pages. I ended up at Bee Tree Hardwoods. They are located right next to Warren Wilson college on Bee Tree Lake Rd. They have all kinds of rough saw hardwood lumber. All kiln dried and ready to go. I got some plain sawn red oak for 2.75 a board foot. They also had quater sawn red oak with pretty tiger stripes in the stack priced at 4.25/BF. I don't think they mill but they do kiln dry wood. They seamed to have a good supply of oak, cherry, maple, etc... They were very helpfull in picking out the few boards that I needed Make sure I would be able to make the pices that I had planned without running in to a knot or something. The board feet were correctly calculated if anthing a bit under calculated. This was my first experience buying rough sawn lumber so I don't know if the pricing was goo, bad or ugly. But I'd go there again.
