Pat, I just wanted you to see the crib that is made from the Caribbean Rosewood that I purchased from you. That is by far the hardest and the most colorful wood that I have worked with. It is a gorgeous piece of furniture that will be enjoyed for many years. Thanks for all your help! Sincerely”
This is a dog gone nice baby crib… thanks Patrick!

Please forgive the lengthy delay in responding to the mahogany delivery. I’m very pleased with the wood and can’t wait to get to using it. I’ve got it stickered in a safe dry place and there were only a few pieces that had some warp to them. I don’t believe I saw a single knot in the bunch. I don’t know if you are aware that there was one piece in the order that is 21.5” wide and 9’ long. Pretty impressive piece indeed. Only a couple of surface checks. Thanks again and I’ll look forward to getting some more wood from you guys.

Tom,You are welcome to use my comments or photos on your web site. Any business supporting individuals in their hobbies will always get my help. Your wood selections are far more extensive and of better quality than local lumber yards and big box stores. A photo proving the last boat not only looks good, but floats, is attached! Thanks again for your help…

Several months ago I decided to build a walk-in humidor for my tobacco shop. It was paramount that I held to the highest standards of quality when it came to the right wood to use. Spanish Cedar is not easy to come by, and in searching for vendors I came across Wood Vendors. It was top notch service from beginning to end. Even when simply inquiring, they were extremely friendly and took active interest in making sure they had what I needed. They kept me updated on the status of my order from the milling of the cedar all the way to delivery. If things work out well, I plan to build humidors for clients, and Wood Vendors is my go-to place from here on out.”

Hi Pat, Happy New Year. I’ve included a few pictures of our new kitchen cabinets made from the shedua wood ordered from Wood Vendors. They turned out great! Since I’m only a hobby carpenter at heart, it took me a while to design, cut and finish them. We ended up using a clear waterborne finish to enhance the beauty of the wood, no stain. I wanted to thank you for providing me with an excellent wood product. You also did a great job paneling the boards per my request. The shedua panels have a nice tight grain, few knots, and the small amount of grey streaks that are present give a very unique look. We have received numerous compliments on our cabinets. Thanks again for going the extra mile. I’ll definitely come back to you for future projects

Hey pat!
Here’s some of what your rosewood turned into. The base of the stools are made from Curly Ambrosia Maple.
I think with the rosewood I have left I’ll build a Maloof rocker out of it.
Thanks again man!

Wood Vendors provides excellent service and product. The outdoor bench project was my first experience buying lumber without “hand picking”. The widths, lengths, and grain patterns were exact to what I would have chosen in person. Can’t wait to order material for the next project.”

Tom, this entire experience has been terrific starting with the excellent web site with the pictures, specs and reference numbers to enable online scanning for me and therefore a more fluent conversation with you. We’ve had nothing but rave reviews from clients and friends who have seen the walnut table. It is outstanding. I must confess I am one of those doubtful buyers from the web if I f don’t know the product, the company or the sales rep. From the first conversation with you that was not a worry and my confidence continued to grow with each follow up contact. You were always available and I either got you the first call or you returned my call that day. Probably what I liked best is what I tell my staff and children: it’s just as important to know what you don’t know as what you do know. If you didn’t know the answer to my questions you said either you didn’t know our you would find out and get back to me… And you did. That’s what really gave me confidence in you and your company. I appreciate the work you and Titus did on culling and reviewing the pieces that met the first cut and then finally selecting and prepping the final selections. The phone conversations and the discussions about the work Titus could do were superb and proved to be spot on.
It’s hard for me to believe that these finished products are in my office and home and that they got there by the work and advice you gave this amateur woodworker. I cannot express to you the satisfaction and feeling of accomplishment I have for these projects and hopefully they will bring pleasure to family and co-workers for many years to come. I thank you and your company for an exceptional experience. Kudos to you and your company. Special kudos and thanks to you for a rewarding experience. You are a credit to your company, your profession, and yourself.
I hope we can renew this experience some day if I can figure out where to put more live edge wood slab furniture.

My wife and I were remodeling our kitchen and wanted a countertop that was not stone like everyone else has. We wanted a bump out without having a bracket to support it . I went to the local home improvement store to price a counter – $150.00/sq. ft. Didn’t want to pay that for wood planks glued together. Came home, wnet on the web and luckily found Wood Vendors. After talking to Pat about what I was looking for, he quickly sent me great photos of walnut slabs. Ultimately found the slab we liked but it was too thick so they were able to cut the extra 1″ off so that I was able to use it for cabinet doors. Shipping went smoothly with updates from start to finish. We certainely ended up with a one-of-a-kind counter. I look forward to doing more business with Wood Vendors as I have others interested in having me customize a counter or vanity. Thanks, Bob”
