Hi Everyone,
I'm a new(ish) woodworker, with the good fortune of a small shop in my parents garage stocked with my grandfather's, father's and now my tools. I'm on a mission to build out the furniture essentials for a new apartment, that I will be moving into at the beginning of March. I've put aside a solid chuck of money, so that I can build with as much hardwood as possible. With a dinning table, coffee table, couch, living room relaxing chair, dresser, and several large picture frames, I've got a long cutlist. Most everything will be done in white oak.
Is anyone familiar with a good supplier of inexpensive white oak in the San Fransisco bay area or elsewhere in NorCal? I'm currently using More Newton Quality Hardwood in San Leandro and their prices seem to be pretty good + the deliver free next day (Which is great since I have a small SUV with no trailer hitch.) That being said, I think oak is just substantially more expensive over here on the west coast.
I've attached some photos of my recent progress below! (Couldn't figure out how to imbed, so I put them on imagr)
