My favorite hardwood vendor in Dallas has been Blue Linx (formerly Austin)
Hardwoods. I drove by there last week and they had closed. I went over to
Hardwood Lumber and they have moved and downsized to just a minimal selection.
Curly Woods in McKinney closed last year.
I don't care if Lehman Brothers survives or not, but when my wood pushers start
closing, this economy has gone too far.
I know about Wood World, Woodcraft, and Rockler. Is there any place left in the
Dallas area where I can a wide variety of hardwood at reasonable prices?
Thanks,
Doug

Austin closed, Hardwood moved.

I'm in the same boat as you, they were also my source. A
little searching turned up Central Hardwoods. They're located
a few blocks from where Blue Linx used to be but I haven't had
a chance to investigate yet. There's also Brazos Forest
Products off of 360 but the selection is sorely lacking. If
you find a decent supplier please post back for the benefit of
others.

Hardwood Lumber has moved? Not good. What about Austin Hardwoods?
Central Hardwoods
2605 Rodney
Dallas, TX 75229
972-241-3571
Just off Denton Dr. about a mile south of 635.
They are a wholesale distributor and will sell 50bd ft of hardwood and
single sheets of plywood. I suggest you call first as they have a "will
call" desk but I do not think they take walk in orders.
