Where can I get a piece of wood milled for me?

(1/3) > >>

javeryh:
I need two shims of any wood that measure EXACTLY 2-3/32" by APPROXIMATELY 13" by APPROXIMATELY 1-1/4" - I know Home Depot doesn't make exact cuts - any ideas on where to get something like this done?  I have a router and jigsaw at home that I've been using but I just don't think I can get the exact uniform thickness that I need the shims to be...

DrewKaree:
Perhaps a lumberyard, otherwise, look for a millwork place. 

NightGod:
Or find a friend with a table saw-cuts like that are easy with a fence.

nostrebor:
Check the yellow pages for either suppliers of hardwoods for cabinet shops or just cabinet shops. Either should be willing (for a fee) to saw, or better, plane down the stock you need. You might toss out a feeler on the main forum for a BYOACer with a thickness planer or table saw that would knock out a couple of pieces for ya. I would be glad to do it if you were close.

ChadTower:

For what it would cost to have a pro do it he could pick up a decent used table saw and do it himself + have a table saw.
