Looking for Piece of Kingwood

[Matt Furjanic]

I need some Brazilian kingwood - about 1-1/2 to 2 BF. I am not particular about size. It can be 4/4 or 8/4, and I do not need long lengths. I can use one piece or several pieces. Ideally it would be 2 X 2 X any length(s), but I can make do with just about any sizes - even short cutoffs. I just need it to be dry and without splits - at least not badly split. Doesn't have to be local (Charlotte area) - I'll pay the shipping costs. I checked at the Charlotte woodcraft store - they do not have it. Thanks, Matt...

I get small pieces of exotic wood and offcuts here:

Nice people right behind one of my customers. Not cheap but ultimate quality.

Amazon Exotic Hardwoods has a bunch but no experience:

Matt, that's going to be some expensive stringing:rotflm:

Check Steve Wall Lumber Company in Mayodan, NC. About 30 miles north of Greensboro off Highway 220. I have some that come from them.

I would also check with The Hardwood Store in Gibsonville and The Woodworking Source in Mooresville. Both have ads on the right side of the screen.
