![]() I recently had an opportunity to visit KCWWG Sponsor Member, Metro Hardwoods in Independence for the first time. Below are some photos and comments on some of the shop items that interested me. Not shown is the vast array of domestic and exotic hardwood lumber that runs isle after isle. I wanted about 17 board feet of Sassafras to play with. Haven't had any for some time ... just $2.26/board foot. I also bought a 3 board foot piece of Alder for $6. You can thoroughly soak alder in water and grill your salmon on it. Great flavor, even the bears like alder grilled salmon. See last photo. (Note: Double click on any picture to enlarge) Metro Hardwoods is located at 4452 South Noland Road, Independence, MO, just off I-70. The store is managed by: Jeff Edemann, Phone: 816-373-1710, email jedemann@metrohardwoodsinc.com . Text and Pictures by: William Johnston webmaster@kcwoodworkersguild.org 913-492-6942
