Ok I just got a source for 4x8 sheets of 3/4" MDF for $21 plus tax per sheet. In order to get this price I need to buy in groups of 40 sheets at a time so I was wondering if anyone on here would be interested in wood at that price keeping in mind they would have to come to Welland Ontario (around 1.5 hours from toronto) in order to pick it up.

I was thinking the same thing [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Edit: some places do charge almost $35/sheet though...

How far do you figure you can get on $3-5 worth of gas?

He's trying to do people a favour that might want to buy a large quantity.

Why are you guys crapping on him? [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

A simple "no thanks" or no reply at all would have sufficed..

home depot charges 29.99 for wood...after tax that is a price differance of $10.34 per sheet. if you are into SPL and need wood and can take like 10 sheets thats over $100 in savings...basically you guys should do the math and realise that while you guys may not test and be loud some people do and they go through alot of wood and this could save some money. I also got a price on shop grade wood which is $19 therefore would have a savings ot around $12.64 over home depot prices...since thats like a 36% savings you guys should close your mouth
