legend Posted July 24, 2019 #1 Posted July 24, 2019 Hello All UK Modelers , Can anyone kindly supply me with the shops / stores in the UK that stock Pearwood strips , 1-2mm thickness / 5-10mm width Thanks Mike Quote
bruce d Posted July 24, 2019 #2 Posted July 24, 2019 It is probably worth getting in touch with these guys: http://www.exotichardwoods.co.uk/ They trade under the name 'Timberline' and have a lot of different woods, mainly serving the musical instrument makers of this island. I have found them to be very helpful. You may be offered sheets/strips of another width but it is a start.

Morgan Posted July 24, 2019 #3 Posted July 24, 2019 I use http://www.originalmarquetry.co.uk/, usually a good service. Also as Spyglass says try Cornwall Model Boats who also supply Pear, I had a recent order with them. I haven’t searched for the sizes you are seeking. Gary mtaylor 1 Quote
