I am looking for a good source for domestic and/or exotic hardwood veneers. Need 1/16" to 3/32" thickness, pre-sliced.

Any leads? I see a bunch at woodcraft, but hoping for a less expensive option or more variety.

Yes, Constantines is still going strong. I get most of my veneers from them. Great people.

Surprisingly, eBay is a great source of veneers. You get to see photos of the exact pieces your buying. The prices are usually very low compared to the regular suppliers. Ocassionally you get at real find like the time I got about 20 lbs of old spider-webbed brazilian rosewood flitches for about $15.
