Hi,

I have yet to ask my local timber yards, but I was wondering if anyone
could advised me on where I can find a supplier for basswood as I
would love to start giving wood carving a try. I've delved into the
dear ol' google search, which amounted to not much in the way of
basswood. I did find suppliers for wood turning, but they sold all
sorts of lovely exotic woods, but not what I was looking for.

Alternatively, if there is a wood that's suitable for a beginner
that's more readily available, please let me know!

Basswood is a species that comes from the same family as Lime, have you
tried Lime?
