Sources of Supply

[Stretch]

I got the idea of making a master thread of suppliers for woodworking products with the possibility of moving it to the tutorials page. So if you've got a favorite product, post it up by general category along with a link to the supplier. Here's a few products and suppliers that I've used and like.

Exotic Veneer
www.certainlywood.com/

EZ-Fill Wood Repair Putty
Water based wood putty that is tintable with both water based and oil based stains and pigments.

UTC Tinting Colors (solvent based)
Great for making your own custom stains and glazes.

Dare I put in a plug for some stuff I can supply?

This would definately be commercial in nature.

In your case, Leo... I'd like to see that here. This IS, after all, a thread dedicated to SUPPLY.

Leo, I can't see any reason you couldn't throw your link into the mix. I'd like to see what you have to offer.

How about some exotics? I used to live near this place and I would just go walk among the stacks with a block plane or a scraper plane and spend my savings I still have the nicest looking piece of Pommelle Sapele from these folks.
