I am in need of some plain old red oak slabs for end pieces in my kitchen cabinets - right now

I have plywood oak veneer.  Dimensions are: 

 

12 by 30 inches

24 by 54 inches

24 by 84 inches

24 by 36 inches

 

Any leads where I can buy this, much appreciated !

You might end up gluing up panels.

Good morning Doug, there are a few places that sell Red Oak Slabs, actually probably more than just a few, you may want to check these locations out.

• Yoder Lumber
• The Lumber Shack
• Hardwood Lumber Company
• General Search for Red Oak Slab

Let us know how the project goes Doug!

Hello Doug and welcome aboard.  Where are you located at?

Why wouldn't you use the oak veneer plywood that you have been using?

Will the cabinets be stained or painted?

Yes, I see some links doing a google search - I'd rather find a place that has a good track record

than just roll the dice and hope for a good experience with an unknown internet vendor.  Thanks

for all your responses.  My oak veneer plywood (house built in 1983) looks pretty cheap.  I'll take

a look at some new product at HD !

Your best bet is to find a lumber yard that sells hardwood. Unless you can't prepare the stock for it's use. 

Where are you located? What woodworking tools can you access?

Reno.  I usually just go buy what I need for each project.  Probably will just find a vendor who sells

cabinet doors and see if they can provide in needed dimensions.

Mastercraft Hardwoods in Reno seems to have a good selection.

Come to tx we have it by the bucket load. Just chopped down a small one in the yard actually. But it’s not big enough to slab. 

Try Keim Lumber. They will ship and have have good experience with them online or Call them
