I often get solid flooring wood from a local store (generally exotics, but sometimes domestic as well). I've had relatively good luck with it and the price can't be beat. I'm constantly on the hunt for new species of wood, however I can get it.
Recently I thought, how can get I get flooring wood from other suppliers? Hardwood flooring places only want to sell by the box and not by the piece. Assuming the new customer will want to use such material for putting down new floor in their home. I discovered that many of these places will send you free samples, generally no more than 5. I'll probably be saving these small samples for nicer kits.
I ordered up some and pleased with what I received. The pieces generally run between 3 - 5" wide and long enough to get pen blanks out of. My question is, where could I go (besides eBay & Amazon) to get a few like pieces of this material?
