I've only found a couple places that sell birch and the prices seem a bit high... $3.45 bd ft and up.

I also need 7" min width if possible.....

Wall Lumber lists it for $2.85/bf without shipping. I've bought from them recently and they are great people to work with. The walnut they sent me was excellent. You can see their web site at:

I have no affiliation with them, I'm just a satisfied customer.

Try woodfinder.net. If you don't find anything there, there's a couple places down here in SoMD I can steer you toward. Be a pretty long haul for you though. Just PM or email me.

Be aware the mill is run by Menonites, strong language will get you escorted off the property with an invitation to not return. Pricing will vary, the more neatly you restack your lumber, the less your lumber will cost. Cash and check no plastic.
