Well let me know and we will have you over to play in the wood pile.

I literally have tons of Rosewood just tell me what size you need and I will cut it. Nice displays 

Nope not kidding at all. Thousands of pounds of IRW (sissoo). It grows here in Mid and S Florida. It is an escaped ornamental to the S of us, though it seems to be contained so far in and around Tampa. We carry all kinds of local urban harvest tropicals, sub tropical and native hardwoods. From fruit trees like mango and citrus to blue mahoe, silky oak (a lacewood) camphor, eucalyptus, live oak, Norfolk island pine, ect. We also carry any burls we come across we currently have Chinese elm burls, mango burls, cherry laurel burl, some type of funky spalted holly burl and an entire tree full of Australian ironwood burl. We pride ourselves on the unusual and highly figured burls and crotch wood.  

Our mission: To salvage urban lumber from trees cut down in our own neighborhoods; to rescue this ‘green waste’ headed to landfills and recycle it into beautiful, useable wood for fine furniture, music instruments, wood turning, or countless other projects; to reduce the purchase of rare and endangered wood by offering comparable local exotics; to do our part for the environment, one tree at a time…
Thanks for visiting us,
Rob & Zoë

 

Wow...

Beautiful woods!  I am currently moving my workshop, but when things settle, I will be interested in some highly figured material for my cane handles.  Big Stick Canes

I see he posted some stuff over on LJs, yesterday. Maybe we were all suckered in?!?
