Your local lumber yard should be your distributor and they will price it out. If you're not satisfied with the price, call another one. If you're looking for info, here's one place to ask: http://www.bcewp.com/

Thanks for your reply.
Would you happen to know of an average price per liner foot of a 1 3/4in x 11 7/8 x 30Ft would cost me?
All distributors are closed today and needed an estimate for yesterday, but must have it by 7am tommorow morning.
Nope, sorry, call a home depot long distance maybe? Best of luck.__________________________________________

Pricing differs across the country so this tidbit from Florida may not be accurate enough. I paid $3.99/ft for 1 3/4"x 9 1/2" microlam a couple of weeks ago. I have paid as high as $4.50/ft for the same product in the past. Off the top of my head (also from a few years ago when I needed and priced the 11 1/4" microlam) I think I was quoted close to $8.00/ft.
Most distributors open at or before 7am so you should be on the phone early for an accurate quote to beat your deadline. Like Calvin said, call long distance to the east, if you are fortunate enough to have another, earlier time zone in that direction.
BTW, were you procrastinating on working up your job? Or did the boss just dump his PPP on you?<G>
