    Wood costs vary regionally!

    Please don't the Neanders but after seeing another wood club members Moxon vice, I decided I needed one.

    Sunday, I called the WoodCraft store in Spokane and they said they had one complete kit with hard maple billets and one hardware only kit. I told them to put my name on the complete kit and I'd be there Monday afternoon. When I got there, they didn't have the hard maple billets. I bought the hardware from them.

    For years I have wanted to shop at the nearest wood porn store as told to me by other local woodworkers. Today after voting in favor of a property tax for the local educational system, we drove 208 miles roundtrip to a hardwood specialty store in Walla Walla, Wa. I need some final dimensions for 2" thick hard maple.

    I bought a 10' x 8" x 12/4 hard maple board for $260 @ $13/bd.ft. With tax it was $283.

    What do you pay for hard maple 12/4?
