Notes (include links to other threads on UKW about the vendor):
Very nice people, quick to answer email and provide quote
prices seem very good. I ordered the following (incl VAT)
White oak 1" : 45.90 gbp per cuft
White oak 2" : 73.20 gbp per cuft
Tulipwood 1" : 22.74 gbp per cuft
Order placed on Wednesday, timber delivered on Thursday noon
I havent worked on the Tulipwood yet, but milled all the oak (4 cuft) and all boards were absolutely clean. By far the cleanest wood I have ever received
I will definitely reorder from them.
