We are situated in the midst of the world’s most exceptional boating waters and forests.
Boat building and joinery necessitate the most demanding skills and require the most discerning selection of materials. At Northstar Tonewoods, we specialize in air dried or kiln dried S4S clear, edge grain, and unique dimensions of Teak hardwood. Whether you require clear FEQ grade or #1 Tight Knot for boats or furniture, we have got it covered.
We strive to cater to your specific needs when an order is placed, and custom orders are cut individually for you at the mill. We ship to North America, Europe, Asia and Australia.
