Misc. Hardwoods
Curly Ash
Ash is hard and heavy. It rarely exhibits any form of curl and when it does the figure is fine
and tight. A1008-2 is the exception as its figure is dense and wavy, more like maple.

We rarely find curly oak, but to find it not only curly but 1/4 sawn too, almost impossible!
It is tough to for your eyes to focus on these boards. They not only have the rays and
flaking of quarter sawn oak, but also the angular striping of tiger oak.

Dear Kevin,

Thank you for that fine piece of curly maple
and those extra cutoffs. The grain on that
piece of maple is going to make for an
excellent stock. Your shipping was very fast
and was very securely packaged. I will
definitely recommend you to anyone that
wants quality wood. Thanks again.

Sincerely,
Charles Gravel  
Kevin,

I got my shipment yesterday. Thanks
for sending it so quickly, I also
appreciate the extra board you sent.
I will certainly find a use for it. The
material will suit my needs perfectly.
Thanks for making buying from you
such a good experience.

Bill
Kevin,

Thanks for the prompt
shipment.  The wood is
beautiful and it arrived in
one day!  Thanks for the free
piece also.  I’ll put it to
good use.  Please let me know
when the (mandolin) neck sized
materials are available as
soon as they are.

Best Regards and Happy
Holidays to you,

George

From the one who wrote the book  . .
"After over 40 years of guitar making, I       
finally found a curly maple supplier who
knows exactly what I'm looking for.
My quest for a dependable supplier is
finally over!"
 




Friendly, very helpful, prompt
service. Items exactly as described...

Excellent product, service and shipping
equals repeat business...

Excellent piece! Wood is exactly as described
every time, A+++

     
Dear Kevin,
The wood you sent came in the mail
yesterday.  It looks really nice.  Thanks for
the extra piece, I will find a good use for
it, but it won't be thrown at the TV.  I don't
get as emotional about the Browns as I did
when I was a kid.  I find I am less likely to
be disappointed that way.  Our day will
come.  Good luck dealing with all the
Pittsburgh fans.  A wordworking friend of
mine a few years ago suggested I let my
mother in law's comments roll off my back
"like water on the back of a duck".  She is
easier to deal with now that I don't pay too
much attention to what she says, and I
smile more.  The next time I need some
curly maple, I know I will check with you
first since I bookmarked your website on
my toolbar.  Thanks for making it so easy.

Dallas
Dear Kevin;

This is just a quick note to thank
you for your help with the curly
red oak that you supplied me
with.  I made a Victorian table
with your wood, and entered it in
an Equipment Manufacturer's
National Contest.  I won first
place.

It certainly helped to win first
place by having the special wood
that I was looking for to get the
table done.  I appreciate all your
personal help in going through
that big pile to select it, and get
it out for me.  Not to mention:
helping me with the shipping
claim, after it was damaged by
the shipper with some machinery,
AND when I ran short on wood
you coming through with enough
to match it, so that I could finish
my project.

Thanks again for all your
personal service, and supplying
the wood that allowed me to win
first place.

Kindest Regards,

Tom Webster
