I wanted a 4x8 Sheet of maple blond, 3/4" or 1", A1, bookmatched, plain-sliced, Veneer Core MacBeth Hard Wood in Berkeley only carries Appleply Maple, 3/4", C3, rotary cut for $111.90. They will order A1 if I buy 10 sheets. I bought it, but would not do it again. Moore Newton in San Leandro is who I would use next time. |
