Can anybody tell me a location where balsa wood is sold cheap for wood carving in the GTA?
I tried searching a carving supplies shop but didn’t get any. If any body knows a location within the GTA, that would be very helpful if you give me that location.
Not sure what you mean by the GTA, but try http://www.balsasupply.com/. If you are looking for a place to go buy some in a store locally, look for a hobby shop that has remote controlled airplanes, or a woodworking supply store.
