I'm working on a project, which will require something more than the
Home Depot's lines of wood. Thing is, I don't have a jointer or a
planer, which means that if I buy some nice mahoghany or cherry, it
won't be easy to work with in my shop.
So... are there any wood sources near Philly which can joint and plane
the boards for me?
Brian,
let me know what part of Philly. I am northern Bucks and there are places
around that will plane and/or joint edges for you (for a price of course).
One that comes to mind in Doylestown Lumber. Pricey but gets the job done.

Hearne Hardwoods in Oxford can do this for you.

Delaware County Supply, off of Chichester Ave. (Exit 1 on 95 just above the
Delaware border)
I'm pretty sure they will surface their stuff for you. A little closer than
Hearne (which you
should get to sooner or later anyway).

I went to Willard Bros for the first time about a week ago. They had a good
selection of wood and the guy behind the counter was very friendly.
