rhoads56 Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Derek, you really really sicken me dude. What i wouldnt give to have access to wood shops like that... sheesh, i got excited the other day when i found a wood shop that actually sells mahogany (thats two shops in total now!). All those magnifent resources right at your fingertips... go forth and build damnit!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krazyderek Posted July 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 in CAN $ basswood is 4.80, and ash is 5.20, both prices are per board foot. So a board for a body blank 40"x7"x2" would be 21.45$ and 23.23$ respectively (tax included). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
