    I missed the project pic-- that looks GREAT!

    $30 is very pricy for a 2 foot piece of oak. Most lumberyards sell it for around $3-4 a bf and a 10 inch wide piece of 4/4 lumber 24 inches long is about 1.7 bf. I would recommend you google your local area to find some other sources as you'll save a lot in the long run. If you do not have the tools to dimension your lumber to square and flat, many lumberyards will joint/plane your stock for you for a nominal fee- sometimes even to size.

    If you live in Texas (I loved my time in San Angelo) you are liable to find local sawyers that are even cheaper still.

    I hope this helps,
    Lawrence

    Thank you Lawrence the info is helpful. I live on Kodiak Island and we only have one lumber yard which is overpriced. I'm flying to the Anchorage towards the end of the month for a Dr's appointment and hopefully I'll get to the lumber yard while there and hopefully set up something where I can get wood shipped.
