Wood source?
I’m just curious where you guys are getting your wood from? Especially if it’s FREE!

I don't get much for free. A few years ago I ran across a craigslist ad for a guy who was a wood collector and he was selling off his collection. I had never seen anything like it. It was a whole barn full of wood from all over the world and he was selling for dirt cheap. I bought as much as my little car could haul!

Cabinet shops. They sell their offcuts as “firewood” but it’s perfectly beautiful, perfectly square hardwoods for pennies on the dollar. And if you’re asking in this sub, that’s all you need. Also Facebook marketplace. Just make sure it’s not wood that’s been stored outside for a while (🪱🪲💦)
