Default Saw mill in pittsburgh area

Cherry is about $4 - 4.50 depending on 4/4 or 6/4. Didn't ask on the
wallnut. He didn't have a lot of it.

Did he say how much for the walnut and cherry?
You could go straight out 22 east if you wanted to also, it's a nice
ride.

Got just the place for you Dave. However, it's about a 2 hr drive from

you.
It's called Mountain Lake Lumber, located in Duncansville.

Just a small one man operation, but he has a band mill and a kiln. I've
bought some great white & red oak from him ($1.80 bf) and ash ($1.50

bf).
Really nice guy named Norm runs it. 814-696-8706. 2740 Old Route 22,
Duncansville, PA 16635. Get on the turnpike east, take the Bradford

Exit,
go north on US 99 to Duncansville. Go west on Old Hwy 22, about 3

miles.
On the right side. It's kind of a long trip (I live in York, and it's

two
hrs for me), but well worth it.

I was there week before last, and he said the kiln was full with

red/white
oak, ash, and some pine. He has some really nice white pine that looked
like 10/4 & 12/4. He offered to cut it up what ever width/length I

wanted
(I'm not into pine right now, so I passed). He also has cherry, maple,
walnut. He said he'd be opening the kiln sometime the second week of

March.
He also said he has some cherry at the band mill that he'll be doing

this
spring. You might give him a call before you go over.

Take your pick up or van - it should be worth it!
