James2 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Anyone know where I can buy some seasoned timber in the ` 24 ` department, preferably around the Riberac area?The usual bricolages do not sell any and there are not any large bricontes locally.

Rob Roy Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I'm not sure what 'bricontes' are, so apologies if I'm stating the obvious, but have you tried a local wood yard? That's where we would go for seasoned timber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dexter Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 You may struggle to find one thats open for the next few weeks though, the yard I use here in 23 closed last Friday for four weeks.Dexter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James2 Posted July 31, 2012 Author Share Posted July 31, 2012 Bricontes are known in France for second hand or reclaimed building materials. A wood yard such as PointP and Rouseau Pro sell stock timber to the building trade. My search for seasoned timber relies on finding a briconte in my area ` 24 `If all fails I may have to travel further, such as Perigueux or Bergerac.

James2 Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 Thanks Nell, I have made a note of both woodyards and the nearest one is at Pigearias, as I am located near St Aulaye. Thanks again for your help, here`s hoping I can find some wood. Regards James2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
