Wenge cut-offs available at only $2.50/lbs!

As many of you know we just received a few pallet loads of beautiful Wenge cut-offs a few days ago.

Thicker material (up to 1.5" thick) in a variety of sizes make it a great option for numerous different wood projects (turning, musical stock, furniture, etc.) Besides ebony, wenge is about as dark as wood gets so it is a great inexpensive alternative for plugs, pins, small accents, etc.

The best part-

We are offering all the material at our discount "exotic scrap" price of $2.50/lbs!*

*Purchase 300 lbs or more and get it for ONLY $2.00/lbs!

These cut-offs are available for purchase on our online store (click here) or you can call us directly to place your order over the phone (760-434-3030)

Wenge material over 1" thick is getting harder and harder to find, take advantage of this stock while we have it!

New pallets of exotic shorts just in! Drop by the shop and dig through the new stock......

We just finished offloading multiple pallets of exotic shorts that we recently found stashed in an old warehouse.

Nearly 50% of it is 6/4 and 8/4 Wenge shorts (some 4/4) in random widths and lengths 36" and under (Many of you know how difficult it is to find thick Wenge these days...)

The other 50% is 8/4 Koa and 5/4 East Indian Rosewood in the same dimensions.

We don't have an exact price on this material just quite yet but plan on it being pretty cheap! (Like 40-50% our regular price!)

We are going through the stacks as we speak, feel free to drop by the shop and dig into the stack yourself!!!

TEH online store...

Our online store is a great way to get an idea of the different types of exotic woods we carry here at the shop.

Many of our clients have found it very useful to use as an "Online Catalog" to see what we currently have in stock and then either call, email or place their order directly online.

We do our best to update the online store every week and always keep the products fresh and exciting for all our customers across the USA and throughout the world.

Below are some different sections within the online store the we think may be of interest to many of you.

Give the online store a browse and let us know what you think.

Remember if you don't see what you want, let us know and we will see if we have it in stock.


Our Lumber section is full of different exotic woods from across the world and includes a "Select Pieces" section were we list individual piece we think are neat such as our Highly Figured Cocobolo & Bocote (see image above). You can either purchase our exotics by the board foot (i.e. 10 BF 4/4 Holly) or you can select the individual pieces that work for you.





Our Turning section is full of individually listed bowl blanks and turning squares (spindle stock) in many of our exotic species. Also listed are discounted bundles and flat rate packs with that make ordering easier. Interested in cut-offs? We sell it by the pound to be used in a variety of projects!






We have a Logs/Billets section where we list a variety of pieces that are great for large turnings, sculptures and even bases for tables! Want to cut your own pieces down to your desired blank size? Pick up full logs such as our Turkish boxwood (see image above) and you decide how you want it them cut. Not many suppliers deal with large unique pieces such as these but we like them so we do!





Musical stock interest you? We have numerous sets of guitar backs and sides listed online for you to choose from. Other components listed include fingerboards and bridge blanks.






As mentioned above, one of our best selling items are our "Flat Rate-shipping included" bundles of cocobolo turning squares. Hand-selected pieces in different sizes make them an excellent choice for hobbyists and also great gift idea!

Just refilled the exotic "off-cuts" bin!

If you are interested in our exotic wood "cut-offs", today would be great time to drop by the shop.
We just dumped another two garbage bins full of exotics into the crate.
If we had more time we would probably be cleaning most of the pieces up into first quality stock. We need to clear up some space in the back asap, so our loss is your gain!
$2.50/lbs
$1.50/lbs (50 lbs or more)
Want the whole crate?
Make us an offer!
