Default Where to get jelutong?

Hey, people...new here. I'm hoping someone out there can direct me to a company who sells jelutong blocks for fish carving.

Thanks,
Kevin Birznieks

That's a tough one. I glanced through a previous list of suppliers and the only one it shows for jelutong is Wood Works in Indiannapolis www.woods-works.com

You might contact Mountain Woodcarvers in Estes Park and see if they have a supplier www.mountainwoodcarvers.com

Good Luck!

Thanks, Donna. Mountain Woodcarvers is just on the other side of the mountain. The other link is bad. Can you re-post the other link?

You might give John Davis a Try.
He is a vendor that does our show in the spring. He did have some large Jelutong at one time. I bought a log off of him about 3 years ago. It was about 5 or 6 inches by 10 inches by 6 feet and he charged $100 for it. I am still using it..... He spends the summers in South Carolina and the Winters here in Florida.

Summer phone: (864) 647-5243

Winter phone: (352) 344-8329
