Looking for wood for a mantle

14 years ago

Hello all, I'm in the process of having my house built and want to make my own fireplace mantle. I'm looking for Acacia wood to do this and cannot find it anywhere. It looks to be popular for flooring but I cannot find anywhere to order a few planks for my project. If anyone knows where I can find it please let me know. Thanks.
