   If you can't find stock, Matthew Burak will sell you completed cherry pencil bedposts at a very reasonable price.

   Graunwagon,

    A lot of Black walnut grows in Northeast Iowa.. (and southeast Minnesota )   You shouldn't have to pay a premium for it.  I'd start calling sawmills on the eastern side of your state

   Try http://www.thinwood.com.  They are in Iowa.  You'll probably have to e-mail or call Josh to find out what he has in stock.

   Another option is to glue 4/4 material.  It may be more cost effective and easier to obtain.  It is also more likely to be straighter.
