"Cherry Lumber Kiln dried, random lengths and widths, l00 bd ft minimum, thickness is l l/8 inches, grade is select real nice cherry. I have other lumber available, Ash l.00, Maple l.00, Hickory l.00, Poplar l.00 Red Elm Real nice l.l0, etc. All lumber priced at l.OO is l2 % moisture content."

Looks to be a great deal. Usually pay around $3.50 for cherry. Plus the stickered lumber is a great deal also. Will be going to take a look at it Thursday morning.
What do you pay for cherry in your area?
 
That's a great price. The last cherry I bought (granted, it was a single S4S board at Rockler) was about $8.00/bf as I recall.
 
Here's what i picked up. The guy is a awsome turner also. Spent a few hrs with him. He also said if I came back he would show me some ABC's of turning.

I so want to learn. Even got me a Steelcity midi lathe. Just havent had the time to play with it yet. He did give me a name of a lathe tool guy that lives somewhere around here. Doug Thompson. http://www.thompsonlathetools.com/
