I don't have a decent resource locally for hardwoods, so i'm stuck to online shopping. I've bought from Rocklers, Woodcraft etc. Where do you guys buy your materials from?

They are located outside of Philadelphia, PA. They have a minimum order amount but it is for the entire order not for just one species. Whats nice is that they have pictures of the actual piece you can purchase.
However you need to look at all of the pictures to get an idea of what it will look like. For example a large natural edge slab of olive wood once dry oxidizes.

It is hard to tell from the picture what the grain will look like once finished so when they originally cut it they added some alcohol and took a picture. This should give you an idea of what to expect.

The Wood Yard is a great little gem in Concord, GA. They are a brick and mortar place that also does a brisk online business. Great people too.
