I found an internet wood business today in my area that is going
out of business. Picked up 20bft of maple (some S2S some S4S) for $20.00.
They mostly dealt in exotics. Have a few long boards left (4-6ft) and lots
of
cut-offs. Anybody in the Hampton Roads, VA want to check it out, reply
back or check out the local "Trading Post" found at most 7-11's.

Some purple heart, padouk (or however you spell it), some babinga(ditto) and
all
those other exotics. Lots of pen blanks if your in to that. Not a huge
operation
but it was worth it to me to sort through.
They are located at 1112 Jensen Dr., Suite 103 in VA Beach of off S.
Birdneck Rd.
They are in one of those commerce centers/industrial park thingmees. If you
go to
www.mapquest.com and put in the address it'll map if for you and give
directions.
Its not far from I-264 at the beach or from NAS Oceana.
Very few domestics there. They do have these huge maple planks w/ bark left
on.
Probably not something you'd get a lot of board from. Something they sold
to people
who like to make rustic outdoor furniture from like benches or tables. They
also have
a huge 20 inch planer they're trying to get rid of.
