Thu, Dec 6, 2007, 9:15am (EST-3) [email protected] (pzi) doth query:
I would like to go to a web site and order plywood, melamine, etc. and
get it delivered to my garage.
Is there something like that beside Home Depot or Lowes that offer very
limited selection? If so which is the best. -Peter
Don't know, don't care. If I wanted those materials delievered,
I'd start by checking with some of the real builders supply companies in
my area - and I don't mean Home Depot or Lowes (wouldn't shop at HD
anyway).

Hasn't the president taught you anything? It's Internets. I hear
they're a series of tubes...

in New Zealand but I suspect you don't live there)

Very good - called Paxton up and got much better price for melamine
panels then at Austin,
I think I found my supplier. Thanks not@chance!!

Agreed -
I live in South Denver, so Austin will probably be my first choice for
sheet goods.
I'll continue to order rough lumber from Steve Wall. Yes, I do miss
going to my old country mill in Indiana (Wilmont Hardwoods?) and picking
through the piles (and paying $3.25 for nice cherry...). But that's the
price for trying to make sawdust in Denver.
Steve Wall ships cheaper than you can buy in Denver - and the quality of
what he ships out is very, very nice stuff. I've got some 5/4 walnut
coming UPS for my dining room table project - and another 100 up in the
rafters of the garage.
Good luck -

OK - lets start with New Zealand :-). Devner Colorado would also be
useful.

Yes - I found Austin on Mississipi Ave. in Denver and they have quite
nice selection - this is my first choice so far as real store option.
This has major advantage that you can inspect the stock while you pick
it up. With internet orders you get what they ship - end of story.
thanks jbd!

http://www.boulterplywood.com has a good selection and will ship to
anywhere in the continental US. Not cheap though, and the shipping
adds more.
http://www.aircraftspruce.com/ has structural grades in thin sections.
You'll be better off finding a local supplier if you can.

Try also ..Paxtons up near commerce city. or Centennial Hardwoods, not
sure of their new location they recentlt moved because of TREX.

Paxton's is one of the major area wholesale supliers, Rockler,
Woodcraft, etc... I suspect Austin and Centenial also buy from them. I
know many of the local cabinet shops w/o rail access also deal with
them. Good for us weekenders that they also have a retail store with a
nice selection of sheet goods and hardwoods, priced by the board foot,
buy what you "need". Heres their URL
http://www.paxtonwood.com/woodcrafter.html
Now only if there were a paxtons or some such on on the south side of
town...oh well
