Hi Steve,

My source for basswood and walnut mantel stock is The Hardwood Connection is Sycamore IL. 815-895-8733. They have basswood 4-inches thick and thicker. They bought my walnut mantel inventory (blanks), about 5 tons of 5-inch thick mantels aged 20 years and more. They will ship.

  Hello all...

  Where is a good reliable source for getting some basswood and black walnut?  I'm looking for material 2" thick and thicker maybe up to 6" and 6" wide and wider.
  I have a mantle project in mind and a friend of mine has full sized animals and birds that he wants to carve.

  Thanks for the help...

  Best Regards,

  Steve
