| I am looking for a source from which to purchase bulk wood hexagons

| means that each side must be one (1) inch. I need these parts to
| be extremely precise so I cannot just take my jigsaw and cut them
| by hand. I think I remember reading somewhere that there is a
| tool/accessory that some woodworkers have that allows them to cut
| exact duplicate shapes from 4X8 sheets??

How precise?

| What should I ask potential suppliers that will allow me to pick the
| supplier that can produce the most precise pieces at the lowest
| cost??

How much?

| I am in Des Moines and think that a local supplier would be best
| (if I can find one) due to shipping costs but am open to other
| nearby areas if I cannot find someone local.

Is I-80 exit 110 (DeSoto) 16 miles west of Des Moine sufficiently
local? If so, you're invited to stop by.
