I want to build a screen door, following the plan in a recent Workbench
magazine, which calls for white oak 1 1/8 thick

Surely this isn't an uncommon size. Any advice on where to buy? I'm in
Los Angeles.

At the risk of suggesting the obvious, why don't you buy white oak in the
next larger thickness available (probably 5/4) and reduce it to 1-1/8 with
a
thickness planer?


Oddly enough, this is the nominal planed size for 5/4 lumber.
