I buy mine from trash piles the price is always right.specialized wood shops throw out a lot of good wood ,cabinet shops,I know of one that will pay you 30 dollars to take it away ,it to much for me, but I take and stock a lot from them.i f i have a request for a certain size wood they will cut it and give it to me!I've gotten zebra wood veneer ,mica,1/8 -1/4" 1/2" 3/4" and even 1" plywood from them,Casket making shops throw out the best wood of anybody,but you have to take it all!
