Wow, that pic is gorgeous, nice job. Also, do you know of a good hardwood
source? I know Atlanta Hardwoods, but they can be kinda pricey. There
also used to be a good plywood source in Kennesaw, but they seem to be gone
or have moved. I can't remember they're name anyway.

Getting ready to build an entertainment center out of Red Oak. Originally I
was going to be able to use mostly 3/4 plywood, but now I'm afraid I'm going
to have to use all 3/4 planks. Just looking to save some money.

Any ideas?

Where in Atlanta?

Alpharetta here.

Unincorporated Cobb between Fulton County and Sminings.
8 minutes to Buckhead, 20 minutes to Mare-retta. 12 minutes to
Rockler. 16 minutes to Highland Hardware. Worked for a decade in
Roswell, Dunwoody, and Sandy Spring when Alpharetta (and Roswell for
that matter) were horse farms and Dairy Queens. Most old customers
lived there. Cobb, however, remains the puss pocket it always was.

I mostly turn stuff like this:

I'm thinking of starting a new theme based series of turnings.
Pettifoggers, Politicians, & Machinery will be initial efforts. ;-)

Good luck with the antler turnings, I see you have gotten more useful
advice from others. I've tried to find alternate materials locally,
alabaster and raw turquoise for instance, but have had little luck.
Miami, Chicago, LA and NYC seem to be the primary outlets for artistic
supplies, yet ordering sight unseen is risky and/or shipping = $$.
Lots of fake turquoise going around these days.
