Got wood?

You could try a tree surgeon. Season it yourself.

Ebay is a good shout. There are quite a lot of exotic offcuts available for about £15. Thinking about getting some myself when the oak runs out.

If you want some for free try contacting hardwood flooring companies for samples, some of them send good sized pieces FOC that are ideal for working with. You can get your desired thickness by laminating them using Titebond 2.

Hope that helps a little

I've just bought some lovely walnut from eBay. Can't wait to get it cut and oiled ;-)
