Willing to drive 300 miles out from York,Pa.I did a search and only found large mills wanting large lots.
Thanks

The preferred species for your application would be shortleaf and longleaf pine. Pick the boards with the tightest annual ring count (15+ rings per inch is best), and run away from any boards that have only 4-7 rings per inch.
You may have to ask some local woodworker guys for a sawyer as those businesses are typically very low profile. | | |
