Unfortunately, I don't find your original message, so I don't have your
private email address, however, *some* of these woods can be found at
the Woodcraft shop. There are locations in most major cities, but
specifically, these are the ones in the metroplex:

Brookhaven Village Shopping Center
14380 Marsh Lane
Addison , TX 75001
(972) 241-0701

Fort Worth , TX
Ridgmar Market Center
6954 Green Oaks Road
Fort Worth , TX 76116
(817) 569-0777

They also have a fairly substantial online presence at
http://www.woodcraft.com

I have also found other online sources by searching for the type of wood
with Google or Yahoo. Found 4' x 10' x 4" slap of bubinga that way, but
I was about $4,000 short of funds to purchase it... :)

Hope this helps.

Sluggy!
