I looking to build a box that's about 4" tall x 2" wide X 1" thick. Does anyone have any extra or scrap wood, blocks or sheets(about a 1/4 thick) that would work for this? Looking for any and all kinds of wood. Doesn't matter what kind of wood it is, a mix would be ideal.
Please let know what you have if any and how much you are asking for it shipped to area code 60915.
Thanks

I have some old wormy chestnut and walnut that was taken out of a building before it was torn down. 100 year old building. I have plained it down. Very nice wood. Can put a picture up tonight when I get home tonight

Yes, please do along with any other pieces you might want to get rid of. Even small pieces that I can you for the top and bottom to make a 2 tone box. If I could ever remember how to upload pics I'd post a pic of what I'm looking to do to give everyone a better idea of what I could use.
By chance, if I don't get a lot of feedback could someone point me in the direction of decent places to buy this wood? I'm just not looking to spend a ton on this project until I see how well it works out and see what kind of interest there is in the boxes.
Thank you, definitely looking forward to seeing what you have. Sounds like some killer wood.
 
Go look around locally. It will save you a lot on any shipping. Lumber yards, woodworkers groups, millers, tree removal services, craigslist, freecycle, etc. Hell, I picked up a radial arm saw for free over here in california. Lots of good stuff if you know where to look.

Hint: I would also search this forum for similar threads and see what people posted.
