I was gone a while, haven’t seen colonial around. Curious if they changed their platform from website to social media or close their doors?

I really liked their stuff!

Sold out his stock and went into another venture 4-5 years back.

Steve shut it down a while back...he did indeed have some very tasty products, the cream of the crop as it where and at a decent price (unlike some other places that charge to the hilt for inferior goods)

I picked up 6 nice sets of EIR and 6 sets of Khaya at a good price as he was shutting it down. Building one of the EIR sets now. They really are nice.

Steve hung it up. The "outlaw in-laws" live on Gwynns Island Virginia, drove right by Colonial Tonewood, in Barhamsville a couple times a year. Loved dropping in and digging through the pile:) Great guy!

Got a nice batch of BRW bridge blanks before he shut down. A good guy to deal with.
