Have easily bought $1000 worth of wood from them so far in 2021. Great service and quality, and price is very reasonable. Very informative video. Entertaining too !!
Thank you so much for the comment! Yeah, not many people have seen the loss that happens when creating specialty woods for high end woodworkers. It's so fun to be able to share our process.
@@CookWoods Sigh. I live in Michigan. That's a rather long commute every day. Around me, there are no places like you guys, but then, you all have been doing your thing for decades. It takes time and commitment.
@@justinsperry8937 That is quite a commute! You're right, we definitely have been doing this for a long time. We hope you can come out sometime and visit us!
I love these behind-the-scenes videos and seeing what goes into processing the logs into usable material. While I haven't bought a ton of stuff from you guys, everything I've gotten from you has been excellent and you're the first place I look when I need something for a project. 2 things I've wondered about from watching your channel: 1) your yard always has these giant piles of logs, I'm curious about the turnover. Is the pile in today's video the same pile as last month, or is it all different? 2) How do you source the wood, especially the exotics from overseas?
We buy good logs when they are available. Some logs stay on the deck for days and others months or up to a year. Sourcing logs overseas is very difficult and expensive but I love to bring beautiful wood to our customers and that makes it worth it for me.

We actually are able to cut everything into usable pieces! We cut all of the way down to cut offs and small pen blanks and sell them on our website www.cookwoods.com

Crazy gorgeous wood, thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for commenting! We really appreciate it and love bringing these videos to show off what you can find inside of wood.
Although I already have access to more wood than I could use in my lifetime, it's interesting to see how you process those big chunks of wood.
Boy oh boy, if I lived near Cook Woods, I know where I would want to get a job.
Well you could move here!!

How long do you let them dry before milling? Do you buy logged burls or just standing timber ?
