I have three smaller lumber mills within fifty miles. I get rough sawn oak, maple, etc. from them and plane it myself. Many times they will have such boards that are not an even width from end to end and I get them at a considerable savings.

Also, I have several areas with decent sized trees which include oak, ash, cherry, etc. When I see a decent sized tree that needs to be harvested I will haul the log to one of the mills and trade it for rough sawn boards or have it cut for my use.
