Hello,

In my house I am remodeling a kitchen. As a result we took down one of our walls and would like to continue the hardwood from Dining Room into the kitchen. However the floors are not a standard width that is readily available. I need a thickness of 5/16, and width by 1 5/16. They are very narrow and face nailed. Where can I get this type of wood? A local dealer suggested buying 2 1/4 and cutting it down on a saw. This sounded nuts to me... I would assume I'd have to run it through a jointer too to ensure the edges were clean. Can't you still buy this type of wood somewhere? I live in Philadelphia, PA.

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
