Is anyone from the Winston-Salem area thinking about going on Saturday if this works out?
He also has oak, cedar and maple at another location, we did not discuss price for those woods. He says that is real prime stuff. But he needs to move the walnut due to the...ahem...well....foreclosure.
Any chance of some 4/4 maple ?? Price?
Either way, thanks for keeping the lot of us posted!

Gary figure AD Walnut about 3lbs a board foot it's as good as guessament as any
A F-150 is a 1/2 ton right? - so 1000 lbs if you got good shocks and springs. I would say in the neighborhood of around 330 ~ 350 BF
I am in Thomasville, I am trying to figure out where this is at.
Before i will say i want some.
It looks like it is just North of Raleigh - about 100 miles from Winston-Salem one way. Even at that price, it is just a little far for me - especially given that I don't need any right now. If I wasn't in such a hurry to finish the kitchen, I would go just for the heck of it. If someone near me is going and had room to pick some up for me, I'd gladly pay part of the gas bill for the trouble.
I'm interested and I live in Raleigh out toward Youngsville. Let me know how I can get in.
to far for me,
From the original post, I believe the intent is "each man/woman for himself/herself" and this is NOT a coordinated buy. Just wanted to clarify that (from how the original, but updated, post reads) so that people don't think it's "just going to happen".

I'm in for 300 bdf of 10/4. I live in N Raleigh. So this works well for me. Thanks for coordinating Jim. Let me know what develops for saturday.
I think a free-for-all is probably best, organizing something more structured would be tough on such short notice. It takes this group 2 weeks to even decide on a restaurant
I wouldn't be too worried about sorting. At this price, I don't think anyone is going to be picky. As for measuring, like Jeff likes to do - just put boards that are roughly equal in length side by side and measure across. No need to measure each individual board.
I anxiously await confirmation re: Saturday. If this interest holds up, he should be able to sell half his stock. Not as easy as selling it all in one transaction, but hey, cash is cash.
Everyone that comes should bring gloves, pad and pencil, and a tape measure. MTCW.
Being that Saturday is Valentine's Day, I don't think I'll be able to do it. Sunday or Monday would be a possibility for me, so I will contact him and see if he is open to either of those days (I'll send you a PM Jim). If I can ge there, I will buy as much as I can fit in the Expedition and figure out what to do with it all later.
I am interested in 200BF. I have an F150 and am in the Cary area. Assuming I can work it out with the wife, anyone needing a ride, please let me know.
