After a short absence from woodworking I now have time to start Xmas presents. What a shock when I went down to pick up some rough red oak. $2.00 higher than what it was just 45 days ago. I would like to know where in the Denver area I can get some red oak under $4.00 a BDFT.
Thanks David

I've had good service from these folks but shipping might run kinda high...

$2.60 bdft for 4/4

David,

Last time I looked Sears-Trostel in Ft Collins had 4/4 RO for under $4, but that was in mid-August.

I have been too busy to do anything about getting any wood since I am still working on the workshop. Maybe once I get all the "tasks" done I will also be more active.
