I have a fellow maker friend whose current supplier of maple just shut down due to a death in their family. Completely understandable. I know @Lloyd_Plum has awesome live edge slabs and turner type stuff, but need some maple, or other fairly hard lighter colored planks for making flags that get laser engraved.
Any suggestions welcome, and feel free to direct email my makerspace mail or gmail.
Tagging @bertberaht and @mdredmond if they have any ideas. Plano “ish” but really east side of Metroplex is fine.
