[SEL] Oak wood for carts

[cgandree at mchsi.com]

Curt,
I have two real good saw mills I buy larger red oak stock from and I am sure 
they could help you out with 4" X 6" stock of the length you need.  I also 
have the plainner on hand to cut down to 3 1/2 X 5" if you like.
Contact me off list.
Curt Andree
