Default Need Thick Wood

Pretty much no one kiln dries wood that thick, so you'll be looking
for either green wood you can air dry (for several years), glued-up
stock from thinner wood, or stuff that's already been air
dried.

You could look for a local sawmill nd see what they can do for you. Or look for
a turner's organization in your area, since turners use thick wood.
