wanted big chunk of fir,spruce or cedar
I'd like to find a piece of wood (fir, spruce
or cedar) about 6 x 14 x 46 to carve. Some guy in BC quoted $180 USD plus shipping. That's too much. Anyone know of a cheaper supplier |

A single piece of wood that big will likely check or crack severely and your
hard effort will be ruined. You would be much better off making a glue-up from smaller pieces. They're much easier to locate too, although it'll likely cost you at least 3/4 of that quoted price anyway. That's almost 27 board feet of lumber and fir prices around here are running about $3.75 / bd. ft. So this would be $100, plus labor for the glue-up. I haven't priced spruce or cedar lately, but cedar will likely be the most expensive option. -- Charley John wrote in message ...

Green (not dry) white cedar runs $1.00 per BF in Maine if that is of any
interest. John wrote in message ... I'd like to find a piece of wood (fir, spruce or cedar) about 6 x 14 x 46 to carve. Some guy in BC quoted $180 USD plus shipping. That's too much. Anyone know of a cheaper supplier |
