If you are in chicagoland check out owl hardwood lumber. They have every type of wood imaginable. I am not in chicagoland and i just buy cedar 1x8s from menards. They have 1 side rough sawn though. I just cut my blanks and then belt sand the rough sawn side smooth.

I went to Home Depot and they had nothing but junk. Menards had some decent boards with a couple knots here and there.

I get mine from the local saw mill if you look around you will find a cheap source.
