Exotic wood suppliers for bows?

Bigriver · January 03, 2007, 06:26:00 PM

If any of you bowmakers have the name of some suppliers out there,other than Master Crafters, the info would be greatly appreciated. I am looking for tulip wood specifically. Thanks.

Gilmer's is in Portland and they photo every upscale piece of wood and post them online.

Gilmer's is only 120 miles north of me and didn't even know it. They do have some unbelieveably beautiful wood! I noticed some of the wood says it is partially dried. Is there concern for cracking with some of this expensive wood if dried too fast or something?
