September 13, 201213 yr I frequent a hardwood lumber company in my area here in Riverside CA called Reel Lumber. And the big honcho on site is Tom. A great guy, always helpful and runs a clean ship at Reel Lumber. Not to mention, their inventory is spectacular! They have lumber stores here in Southern CA, here is their website.Reel Lumber Service. and it looks like they are embarking on a new website design to open this fall.And you can go to their Facebook Page and Like Em! Tom recognized me as I walked in after work today as he always does, a big smile and ready to help. I walked up to him at the front desk with my stack of Wood Turners Contest Flyers in hand to ask if he'd lay the stack on the front counter for folks to pick up.After reading the flyer and listening to me go through my Homes For Our Troops speech, without hesitation he said he'd put em up for all to see, and he'd go one step further, he'd plasticize one flyer and pin it up on the bulletin board too. He was very interested in our efforts here and he said he'd also pass em out to a woodworking group that meets monthly in his lumber store.So with that, I hereby declare that Tom and his A-1 staff of Reel Lumber Service are True Patriots!Thank you Tom for your great service in the past and today, and your interest in our Wood Turning Contest to benefit Homes For Our Troops. Reel LumberRiverside Office3518 Chicago Ave. Riverside, Ca 92507(951) 781-0564 office (951) 781-4523 fax or (800) 649-4906Hours M-F 7:30 - 5:00 Sat 8:00 - 4:00 John MorrisThe Patriot WoodworkerProud Supporter of Wounded Warrior Project and Homes For Our Troops
September 13, 201213 yr Yup!Reel is a great place with very nice folks. Every time I go in there my name is remembered. I kind of feel like "Norm" on the show "Cheers". They are the best place around in the Riverside area for good hardwoods and sheet goods.Allen WorshamCorona, CAallenworsham@earthlink.net'Graze in every man's field, but always give your own milk' J.
