Not sure about suppliers in the U.K. but http://www.mimf.com/cgi-bin/WebX
is a great source of info for building.

I will second JP's suggestion of Gallery Hardwoods. Larry is a great guy. If he doesn't have what you need he will find someone who does.

I would agree with JP about Gallery hardwoods, but an alternative in the UK it a company called Craft Supplies. They might be useful to you and you will be able to visit to choose the pieces youwant.

Regards and good luck with the project. Keep us posted with pics as your project progresses.
