some beautiful walnut blanks on your site

What are the hoops to jump through when bringing in wood stocks? They must have to be declared and fumigated

Welcome to the forum, nice looking wood

I have a question :) Why is wood so exspensive?

Thank you Toby!!! :) As you know prices depend on the dimensions, availability and quality. Nowadays it is not so easy to find a nice walnut tree and a good figure as well. In any case i try to offer good prices to my customers if they really would like to get something.
