Hello and good afternoon!
I'm wondering what you guys do to get good prices on rough lumber/hardwoods? I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
Is it worth it to buy online, considering the shipping costs? I've looked online at a few places, like Westward hardwood, but they are on the island. There's also Advantage lumber...... But I'm must not sure and I'd like to hear others opinions of the quality and pricing.
Mostly, I'm going to buy small amounts so the big local wholesalers don't want me poking around, and if I go to a place like Windsor plywood, the prices are pretty high and the selection is poor. Often they don't have the sizes i want so I have to re-jig my project plans and I'd rather not do that. (for example, finding 8/4 rough is hard, but finding ¾ S4S is no problem, but $$)
Thoughts or experience? Thanks in advance.
