I know the HD in Warwick had a pretty good selection of WRC last week. There is also a specialty lumber yard in Coventry. I think it is named something like Koszela and Son. It is on the corner of 117 and 102. I was there last week and they had a little of everything and a lot of others. I was looking for the perfect piece of maple for a canoe paddle and they were very friendly and helped me dig through their stock. They might be a little more expensive than the large distributers but there is definitely the personal touch and the chance to really talk with people who know their wood. They also told me they would keep their eyes open for me a put aside anything they came across that matched my needs. It seemed like they were going out of their way to help me. Just a thought.
