Been flipping around the yellow pages and web sites, decided to ask
here
as well. Does anybody live in or near the St. Louis (MO) area and
have
any recommendations for where to go for woods? Closest place I can
find
is in south city and it's a looooong drive from where I live and work
(west county).

Go to Action Hardwoods this weekend. They're going out of business and
he's giving great deals if you pay in cash... Everything was pretty
picked over last weekend but I picked up 50 bf of walnut for a song and
he still had quite a bit of cherry and spalted maple left. Other than
that, there's St. Charles Hardwood on 30 (Gravois) about a mile west of
141 (Woodsmill). You have to watch him close as he's not the brightest
guy in the world and usually figures about 10-30% more bf than you
really have. St. Louis Hardwoods is on Watson just east of Lindbergh.
Schaller Hardwood is in South county someplace. I haven't checked them
out yet. 314-894-1499.

Excellent, thanks! I work on Lindbergh between Page and Olive, anything
near that area is perfect. Where is Action Hardwoods at? I'm checking
the yellow pages and I don't see it.
