Found another wood source
« on: September 06, 2010, 04:05:56 pm »
First let me say that I have no affiliation with them.
Just got my order from Dirk over at Thinboards.com.
I have to say the wood is just what I ordered.
Good looking wood. I ordered some 1/8 Maple and 1/4 Poplar.
4" wide and 5' long. This was a test order for me, to find another
source. I think it was a success. Dirk was a very nice man and it
was a pleasure to do bussines with him.I will order from him again.
Try him out.

The jurys still out here, ordered last monday and still waiting on shipping info. They are around 100 miles from here.  Also charged 2% because I used paypal. Liked their website and they replied quickly to email, seem to be very cooperative but had I ordered from Ocooch hardwoods I would have had it for Labor Day weekend. As I say the jurys still out, they're probably fine and I'm just too critical.

Just heard from the jury forman...
Received my order, the wood is very good, the price is good, the service and cooperation was good.  I had some problem with delivery time but that was a mis-communication on my part. I will use them again and reccommend them to all.
