I was given this link by someone else as a tonewood supplier . Some of you may have tried them , not sure . If not here is the link http://www.AlaskaSpecialtyWoods.com . I paid for the order via paypal and it was shipped with confirmation # the next day " keep in mind its a 2-3 week delivery " However they were easy to work with and very fast on response and shipping .
