I just picked up 60 bf of 5/4 poplar at $2 a bf. I know it makes a difference going through a dealer instead of a home store. I just haven't found an area softwood supplier that will sell in smaller quantities.Derek Olson (Oldwolf)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17266838091596906383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8672429826561258985.post-90450250918691958472011-10-05T11:26:59.118-05:002011-10-05T11:26:59.118-05:00I have my grandfather's oak dresser and mirror...I have my grandfather's oak dresser and mirror to restore.

On the plus side, at least you get a first hand look at how something like this goes together. <br /><br />What's sad is that this might well be a cheap piece of furniture for its day. Today, it's a fine piece of furniture that would probably have to be custom built. Funny the difference a few years can make.Tomcat1066http://facebook.com/tom.knightonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8672429826561258985.post-26218692588109641902011-10-03T23:59:43.579-05:002011-10-03T23:59:43.579-05:00Poplar isn't cheap anymore, either.
