Greetings fellow craftsmen and woodworkers! I have just moved back to London after living in the US for about 3 years where i was working as a furniture maker I and am absolutely blown away at the price of American Black Walnut here in England. I was paying 8 Dollars a board foot for rough sawn lumber in Brooklyn and am struggling to find anything reasonably priced thus far.. I have been browsing the internet and checking ebay but can not seem to find any reasonable connections. I understand that things are different here and the materials are regulated as such and we tend to be more responsible with such species but I would like to ask if i am missing something? I have a small project in mind that will require about 24 board feet of walnut or three boards around 190cm long, 200cm wide of 5 quarter (25-30mm thick). Would anyone be able to advise me on how best to achieve this? Thanks and looking forward to any wisdom, Sid
