Gloat - African Hardwood $1/bf - Portland, OR
Now that I've filled up my shop with wood, I'll share this information.
I just purchased 1263 board feet of african hardwood for $1263. I got: Makore - 773 bf Aiele - 150 bf Olonvogo - 94 bf Limbali - 246 bf Some of the Makore and Olonvogo even has spaulting. All rough sawn, 8/4, pretty strait, mostly clear. I didn't see a single knot in the entire warehouse. The place is going out of business and needs to sell everything by end of month. Everything is $1/bf. Minimum order was 250 bf. I posted their inventory with contact info he http://www.mrgreg.org/files/inventory%20summary.pdf Enjoy! |

Well, there is no doubt but that you suck...
I donno, it seems to me that in that quantity they ought to be able to sell it to dealers for more than $1/bf. No? |

At least I was nice enough to divulge my source. I see so many gloats
on here where people don't share the wealth. Of course, I didn't let the secret out until AFTER my shop was completely filled... And the woman running the operation is very nice so I'm happy to send customers her way. |

I thought about getting some. but since these woods are oddballs they may not
sell well. people want to know the wood before they will buy a plane made from it. -- Knight-Toolworks & Custom Planes Custom made wooden planes at reasonable prices See http://www.knight-toolworks.com For prices and ordering instructions. |

No one said you weren't nice; just that you sucked.
