Find their shops and make weekly rounds. Most of them have an Equipment yard where they store trucks, large tools and large piles of wood to take to the dump later!!!! Carve 'em a Tiki and you will be blessed with wood. south Florida is blessed with some good carving wood like mahogany, Silk Oak, Cypress, Mango, Norfolk Island Pine, Ficus, Java Plum and Sable palm to name a few. Not like our fortunate friends out west though..... Hope this helps.
