Red Oak 1/2 price at Rockler until October 3rd

Hehe, $3/bf is still more than my local hardwood dealer. Buying wood at Rockler == No Joy

but it's red oak

I was just kidding. I've made a lot of stuff from red oak. The best was rift sawn stock that I purchased for some clocks per advice in the article in the recent Popular Woodworking. I'm sure I paid more than $3/bf for it.

IIRC, Woodcraft sent out a disclaimer saying the stated price was a misprint, and that they're sorry. That's if I remember correctly. Tom Work at your leisure!

That'd be funny!

Saw that too. That is a good price for S3S in Denver. Joe - who's your usual local HW dealer? Centennial? Austin? Paxton?

I have shoped at all three, but I prefer Centennial. They are a little closer (to me), in my opinion friendlier, and have good wood at good prices. I have been in there enough now that they almost always give me some sort of discount. (I don't even ask. They just do it.)

I just received the same flyer from ROCKLER with the 3/4" red oak at $3 a BF. I was thinking about making the 45 minute drive to the nearest store to check out the quality and possibly make a purchase.

Thanks - Joe. One more if you don't mind: Sharpening?

I'm on the north end of town and thinking about trying someone with a nice yellow-pages ad up in Loveland. But do you have a favorite blade sharpener in Denver?

Again - thanks!

Patrick,

We use Childers Sharpening Service off Broadway. We've been using them for years and they do a superb job.

I get them confused all the time. IIRC! Tom Work at your leisure!

Thanks Mike!
