I was talking to Curt Theobald earlier today, and he mentioned a wood veneer supplier in Florida named Constentine's .
I have not been able to find anything online concerning this company. Has anyone heard of them, and if so, got a web address or phone number?
Thanks,
Greg G.
Greg, They're in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. A very old and established company. Website Phone 1-800-443-9667. They've always had an excellent assortment of veneers, probably (as far as I know) the best in the country. Tom Weber in Merritt Island, FL
Doh! Shoulda spelled it write .
Thanks for the info - how I've managed to avoid noticing them this long is a mystery. They have several exotics I've not seen anywhere but in finished pieces - now I know where they came from.

You'll have better luck if you look under "Constantine's"
Constantines was in NY for years and years till they moved to Florida about
10 years ago. I visited them numerous times over the years; a totally wonderful place. You could wander around the back rooms, lust over all the exptic stuff and run your fingers over the veneer and lumber stock, looking for that just right piece. They also had great displays of tools and some really fantastic woodworking in the show room. Trying to do business in an odd corner of the Bronx finally became too much and they departed for friendlier climes.
