Does anyone have or know where I can get a piece of Palo Escrito of size to make a Bridge? I need it ASAP. Any help is much appreciated!

I'd be interested in knowing your thoughts on PE tonewood. I've got two sister sets, but haven't built with it yet. (I think I'm a lttle allergic to it too...)

I don't have in PE large enough for a bridge, but have used it for back and sides and really, really like it.

Dave, I was going to suggest you try lumberlady.com but the link is not working. Do you have any cutoff pieces? You could do a Palo Escrito laminate into another bridge just to get the appearance you want. Check with BobC as I believe he has made bridges like this in the past. Good luck!

I've checked with my Goomps and he refuses to help! Just kidding...he doesn't have any. LMI only sets. I will try Lumber Lady and perhaps others - Google. Thanks to all for your response. I do have some scrap but I wanted to make the bridge from a solid piece.
