Trying to get started in my oil painting again.
Time was I used to go in to the sawyard down by Leskinnick, great guy, and get my timber. Also in Parkers. Also in Harveys (which became UBM and then Jewsons), later went in to Ace Home Improvements. This was not always for picture framing or canvas picture stretching, I also used it for models. Is there anywhere left in town to get it? It used to be so easy to get it (selected timber and or grain). I eventually want to continue with model ship building, so I need good timber. Any ideas?
