sources for three items

1) carbide cutter and insert for vega duplicator-getting a vega for christmas and am looking for a good price on the carbide cutter kit,

2) val-oil, I am running low and have been all over the place looking for more. Been to several Homies, Lowes, Ace, and independant paint stores. can't find it.

3) 8/4 birch or maple, i can get it at woodcraft, but the price is more than I am looking to pay.

any suggestions on where to get these? Thanks!

Go Bears!

It would help if your location wasn't "On a Rock"....that way we could tell you where to get some stuff in your area

From what I understand Val-Oil is no longer in production from Val-Spar. If you find it buy it soon.

Why even try.........

Yeah, a couple of the independants I went to said something similar. I found it online, but shipping is outrageous. It may soon be time to change sealers.
BANANA OIL?
