Have you tried these folks?

http://www.mgsawmill.com/

They are just down the road from here so if they have anything you think you'd be interested in I could certainly go look or even take pics for you (assuming they don't mind).

Thanks for the offer Lance but I am looking for FB and Bridge stock.

Jay, I might take you up on that offer. Let me give them a call first before you go to the trouble. Thanks I really appreciate this!

They are all of 5 minutes from me. It would be no problem...... a woodworker with a good reason to poke around a sawmill?....... sort of like asking a kid if he minds making an errand to the candy store. :-)

What they have from time to time varies but I don't think there is a big call around here for mesquite so it probably doesn't move as quick as some other stuff.

Let me know.

Jay
