Conover, North Carolina yard with over four decades behind it, and one of the biggest importers of exotic hardwood in the country. The list runs long: bloodwood, cocobolo, katalox, padauk, plus domestic walnut, cherry and maple. Strong in turning squares, pen blanks, burls, live edge slabs and luthier tonewood. The warehouse is open to the public, and prices on rough kiln dried lumber drop when a buyer calls about quantity.
Good fit for turners and instrument makers who need odd sizes and rare species in one order. Also useful for shops that want exotic lumber without a broker. The website looks dated and stock photos rarely match the exact board, so a phone call before paying saves disappointment. Heavy species make freight pricey.
