As a furniture and cabinet maker my shop is full of alder,hickory,maple,oak,and poplar. My only problem; not a lot of contrast as far as color goes. I've got a few projects in mind that would require some more unique colors. Were can i buy exotic lumber online. I'd like to be able to order small amounts of padauk, purple heart, ebony, and other species with some color.
Ask the supplier you buy your standard woods from. You might be pleasantly surprised that he can hook you up with a few boards of exotics and at a much better price if not free for your customer loyalty.
