I thought I'd "keep it local", and I called for a quote in April of 2016 for some length Poplar 1/2" X 1 1/2" stock. Some call it "screen stock", and I hadn't found a lumber yard that didn't carry it...until I called Tague! I needed at least 300 lineal feet to start for an ongoing project, and I was put in touch with a salesman who subsequently left me a message. "It would have to be custom milled" I was told. "$2.95 a lineal foot" I was told. I called back and left a message for him to call back because maybe he had read the quote incorrectly, but never received a return call. I found the stock at Denoon lumber in Ohio for 25 cents a foot.

That being said, I do like their tools. And their millwork is, in my opinion, second to none. But c'mon...rake me over the coals for some ordinary lumber? I'm not havin' it!
