Topic tags/keywords: resource urban lumber

Any one know of a place in the Modesto/Merced area to get slabs? I have always wanted to get something while I am here on vacation and I finally have the chance to do it.

I am staying up the 108 from Sonora so anywhere in the whole area would work.

Thanks for any help

Jay, I have dealt with Ira (Rustfever) here on LJ’s. He is in Modesto. Great guy. He might know of others. Also I have the number for a guy -Young Buck’s tree Service- 209-214-0756- I have not dealt with him yet. I live in northern CA. There is a guy in Twain Harte- up the mountains from Sonora. He does milling and has slabs. I think his first name is Ron, but don’t know his last name or number. Good luck.

-- Robert, so much inspiration here, and now time to work!!!
