I'll bring some of my "plugs". Don't think anyone will want them, but what the hell. I'm just going to try to pick up some tips from you guys.

Is anyone gonna start a sign-up/food list?

Sorry gents...been big time under the weather since New Year's eve. Friggin flu. I've got the date Feb. 16th and the time 9 AM - 4 PM down but is it at the same place in Middleboro? I tried to read all of the posts, but may have missed it...Like it was said...gettin' way out of hand.

As many guys here know I have access to AWC (Atlantic White Cedar) and some times cypress (no AYC). Both are quite good for anything on or near the surface. I have brought some to the fest in the past...Don't know how Lu got it all home...and will do so again if there is an interest AND if I can get it. I'll not take orders per say. just let me know your interest and I'll load up what I can fit into the truck. Lengths are usually 30 - 32 inches and true 2 x 2 inch sticks. I tape them into 10 stick bundles (25 feet) just for ease of handling and keeping track of what he gives me. There are no invoices so what you see is what you get. As of the last time I got wood for some of the builders it was selling for $1.40 per stick ($14.00/bundle) if clear and $1.25 if not ($12.50/ bundle)[still very little waste]. As far as the cypress cost..it's a bit more, but usually he just brings me 2 inch thick planks (6, 8, 10 inches) and/or 2x4's and writes a price on them...If he brings sticks they rarely leave my basement...but Stripercrazy and Finatic beat me out of some 3 weeks ago.

I'd like 1 bundle clear awc, please.

You might want to put a couple bundles aside for Russ (finatic). He's in Florida right now with no computer. We all know what a wood ho he is

Bill,
Russ and Ed loaded up about 2 weeks ago. They took just about all that I had.

Those of you that want cypress...remember it usually comes in planks...and I have no idea how much it costs. I'm not into figuring bd ft...etc. Will (mill owner) just writes the price on them. For example I have 2 in my basement that have prices of $18.00 and $20.00 on them 2 x 6 x 60 (approx)...obviously one's a bit longer than the other. These are older pieces that I've had a while, and I know that he has had to raise his price...very little...but maybe a buck or 2 more per plank??? His stuff comes in in log lengths from the South...I can only imagine what fuel prices have done to his costs. HOWEVER, he knows what we're doing with it and thinks it's great so he's really only raising it minimally. Zac helped me out the last time...he can attest to what kind of guy the mill owner is..he's just a good-old-boy, home town type guy whom I will NEVER stick it to.

BTW I'm up to 23 bundles right now plus a couple of cypress planks. That's 230+ pieces of wood for me to tape... I'll see how much room I have in the truck bed (short bed with tanoue [sp] cover)
He's dropping some (???) off tonight so I can bring it to a lead fest here in RI tomorrow. This is the kind of guy he is...I called him at about 10 AM to tell him about tomorrow...I didn't think I'd be going...finally beat the friggin'flu...he called about 2 hours ago to tell me he started cutting some for me after his last batch of shingles...said he might not finish 'till after 8:00 PM...
