If you just happen to fall on this post and you have a few minutes to dream a little… check the wood out on this site.
The photos are well done and the wood speaks for itself.
Caution: If you don’t have a bunch of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ just ignore this post and go back to the stuff most of us are working with.
No harm in dreaming I guess. I am frustrated in my search for a nice piece of crotch walnut for a project. I’ll continue to search on a budget. If I was only rich… this desk/bookcase would be done.
Enjoy

That is the nastiest post I have seen on this site. It is not fair that you tease us with somethings like those. :>). Wink Wink.
I know this was a little mean. Sorry. Can you believe some of that stuff??
Frankly, if you were going to build something with a 100 hours of labor(guitar), why use some low quality wood?
If you liked that site check this one out - especially if you like 18"+ wide quartersawn english brown oak and 50"+ wide killer walnut

I've got to believe George Nakashima is hiding somewhere in that wood pile.
Nice wide boards for sure! I like going to http://www.gilmerwood.com . They have wide boards and some unreal exotics.
If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it.
And if it stops moving, subsidize it.
