Retired Scroller Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 Hi folks. I,be run across a lack of supply for some thin dimensional woods. In the 12" wide and also some 10" wide species. I.ve planned out a project that I will need 1/8" x 12" x 24" walnut and maple. I contacted Ocooch and it will be a couple of months at the earliest they will have stock. Anybody have thoughts obout availability problems? Finished the last winter project: IMG_0460.HEIC IMG_0460.HEIC IMG_0459.HEIC jollyred and OCtoolguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmmcrafts Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 I haven't bought thin wood in 8-10 years.. since I got my own planer and bandsaw etc.. BUT, when I did buy it I got it from this place.. Not sure how they are to deal with these days and to be honest I only bought from them a couple times because I can get 1/8 + inch locally.. I was getting 1/16 and 1/32 from them for a certain project I was doing... https://www.ebay.com/sch/deer56hunter/m.html?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEFSXS%3AMESOI&_trksid=p2053788.m1543.l2654 OCtoolguy and tomsteve 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappile Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 Check out Cherokee Woodworking Product, under woodworking supplies then scrollsaw wood.... They have it in 1/8" what ever length you require, May have to glue two board together to get 12"wide. I have always gotten great service and produce from them. Worth calling and talking to them. @Rockytime here are the pictures you were trying to open, converted to jpeg. Going to be a beautiful project.. finescrollsaw.com pattern #81..

MrsN Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 You might want to try making a glued up panel rather than a single piece. OCtoolguy and tomsteve 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCtoolguy Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 I can second Cherokee Wood Products. Call and ask for Chris. Tell him what you want/need. Maybe include pics of our project so he can see. They have done a lot of special stuff for the scrollers. And they try very hard to keep shipping costs down. Great company and Chris is the best. cherokeewood.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben2008 Posted March 20, 2021 Report Share Posted March 20, 2021 If you have a table saw with a real good glue line blade, you might want to try gluing up some smaller 1/4" boards to get the width and length you need. I just did that to get a piece of walnut about 13" wide for a fretwork clock I'm making. OCtoolguy and tomsteve 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bpardue Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 Look up Richard's Craft Woods on the internet. This is where I buy all my thin stock from. His website may not be much to look at but he has high quality thin stock. He ships all over the US. I'm may be lucky since this shop is about a 10 minute drive from the house. Actually unlucky because every time I go out there I spend a ton of money. OCtoolguy, WayneMahler and NC Scroller 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meflick Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 I’m assuming this is site @Bpardue Brian is referring to. https://www.richardscraftwood.com I plan to check it out since it would not be too far from me here in East Tn which means wouldn’t take long to get package.

ben2008 Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 I have also had good luck on eBay. and you can actually see the boards you are buying most of the time. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodmaster1 Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 I am with Kevin making my own saves money. I have a great resaw bandsaw, planer and drum sander so no problems producing my own thin stock. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get what I'm saying. He loves to talk OCtoolguy and meflick 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharleyL Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 I buy from Richards Craft Woods in Clemmons, NC. https://www.richardscraftwood.com/ Thin and sanded soft and hard woods. They mill most of it themselves. You will be very impressed with the quality and service. Charley ben2008, OCtoolguy and Bpardue 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
