Rockler - Exotics Cutoffs, 10 lbs. Box (Rating: 4)
So with money being tight lately and starting to work on some smaller projects, I decided to take the plunge and buy a 10 lbs. box of assorted exotic cutoffs. The reviews on the Rockler site have been mixed with some happy and some unhappy. I guess what it probably boils down to is what your expectations are going in. I was expecting some small pieces of exotic species that I wouldn't otherwise be able to afford separately. Others said the boxes were mostly Purpleheart and Padauk which was fine since those were the two I wanted the most. So, if you are somewhat realistic in your expectations and have some small projects that could use some exotics for accent pieces, then this would be a good deal. Especially if you get it with free shipping like I did. So, I would recommend this box. Its a great way to try out some exotics and see which ones you like before you buy large amounts. Hope this helps everyone else.
