I just found a new place in Bucks County PA.
It is called Specialty Woods and is located in Ottsville PA (About 10 min
north of Doylestown).
Their address is 8244 RT 611
Ottsville PA 18942
610-847-6002
610 847-6884 Fax
I talked to the manager Mark Mattozzi, he carries a large assortment of
hardwoods and specialty woods. It is all rough sawn but the stuff looks
quite good.
He also carries some hardwood ply as well.
I hope this store makes it as I am tired of going to Trenton or Allentown
for wood.

If you don't mind telling, where do you get the $1.50 cherry?
Harrisburg is driveable for me.
Thanks
The best wood source I know in the Lehigh Valley is:
Bailey Wood Products, Inc.
441 Mountain Road
Kempton, PA 19529
Phone: 610-756-6827
It's about a half hour NW of Allentown.
No connection, etc, just a happy customer.

There's a place in Allentown?? Where?? Who??
Every once in a while I go through there, and I've never been able to find a
wood store or a tool store (other than the borgs).

There's a Woodcraft in Allentown, now. Check the Woodcraft website for the
address.

Where in Trenton can you buy wood? I only know of Willard Bros (Hamilton).

Yes, I have been to Bailey's several times. All they ask is to restack the
boards you remove to get to the ones you want.

Do you know any prices off hand? I live in South Jersey and I'm tired of
going from Lancaster to Harrisburg for my lumber. The stuff I get is mixed
grades, 80% or better useable but I only pay $1.25 to $1.50 bf for cherry or
red oak. Getting all FAS with a shorter drive is worth a premium but not if
I have to pay the $8+ places around here charge.

It seems when you get past Lancaster there are lots of people with portable
saw mills. I have family in Harrisburg so I usually make a weekend road trip
out of it. I keep an eye on the local classifieds. The stuff I find is
listed under building materials. There's lots of cherry and red oak and
every so often black walnut and poplar. I have never seen maple though and
I've been looking regularly.

thanks for the lead on the place in Ottsville. That is only about 15
minutes from where I live.

There is a Woodcraft Store in Allentown off of I-78. Check their web site
for directions. It's a new store and FWIW it's owned by a woman.
