John,

 I started this different post for I lost track of where we were on the other one.

Doug informed me that he had some really nice Walnut to bring out when I got the other bunks made up to hold them. I will see if he has some strong 8/4 to bring.

 

If I can get you some strong 8/4 x 10" x 8' would that be wide enough for the seat?

 

Let me know so he can sort through what he has in Pickerington, Ohio to bring out.

 

I'll ask him to send you some pictures before he brings them to London. Better Still you can email him at DougZeyer@hotmail.com and tell him I referred you to him and he can send you some pictures of what he has on hand.

Ralph, when is he making the trip out? And yes 10 wide would be sufficient.

HI John,

I have not heard back from him as yet but I'll send him another email to be sure of the shipping price.

Thanks Ralph, but I was asking when he'd be out your way with the lumber. Sounds like he brings it out to you then you ship it from your location right? The reason I am asking is because I am making a drive tomorrow to check some walnut out, I didn't want your source bringing out a special order if it wasn't going to sell.

Welcome back Larry,.

I have looked at the Claro, I love it, it is pretty hard to go wrong with walnut period. It is just in short supply around here. I admire you folks in the midwest.

Use nothing but a high-quality Claro walnut.

I agree Larry, but the claro is all up in Northern Ca, in the Frisco area. As a matter of fact, as we speak, a quote just came in from Baker Hardwoods of Gilroy, I am going to open up the mail now.

Isn't Claro walnut mainly a California product? I've seen some pretty wide Claro too. Seems like your next chair seat would be awesome made from a one-piece, figured Claro..
