Thank you all for the feedback. Its been a lot of help.

I have been looking online for suitable wood for scrolling and fretwork, but I have been unable to find any thing. My local stores only carry plywood and I dont want to use that unless there is no other way. I would like to find about 1/2" thick domestic hardwoods, anywhere from 4" wide to 12" wide. Wildwood designs is the only place so far that I have found, and they go to 8" wide. They are in the process of updating their site so it isn't quite working right, but is there any where else?
