Yes.....I understand the situation. Now with the dollar price on the high, wood has become even more expensive. If the requirement is large enough....suggest you go for a log rather than a pre-cut wood. This will help you have the same grains all over your quantity purchased. In case you go for pre-cut, all the pieces will be of different colours & patterns on the grains.

Decide the type of wood that you intend to purchase & then various finer details can be worked out.
