Source for Mesquite in Houston

Looking for a few boards of Mesquite wood in the west Houston area on an
upcoming business trip. Directions to sellers or suppliers would be
appreciated. Also links to woodworking or woodturning groups in the Houston
area would also be appreciated

Thanks

Hi Stphen,
Although I am not in Houston (about 3.5 hours West), I stock Kiln
Dried Mesquite in four grades/price ranges. I am loading my kiln with a
fresh batch of wood. If you need something beside 4/4 or 8/4, let me know
and I can cut the thicknesses you need while processing the sawlogs.
I can ship wood to you if you would like if you don't find something
to fit your needs in Houston. I have a price list you can download at
http://www.tbird-hardwoods.com
Ya'll have fun in Houston. <grin>

Ouch. Information is good, but I was unaware of the local cost for
kiln-dried boards, of what I have been thinking of as a ditchweed despite
it's attractive finish capabilities. I'd want a couple of short boards
anyway for some small furniture type projects.

As an alternative, do you have suggestions on woodturning groups in Houston
to go and visit in March?

Clarke Hardwood Lumber and Houston Hardwoods both have mesquite. Bring gold.

Further West, Michael Burton has mesquite for sale as well as Texas kiln may
have better prices. Check the Texas Mesquite Association web site for
vendors.
