Three rivers or trade with online or local friends.
Sometimes the auction site on line.

If your looking for glass laminated bow supplies check out Kenny's Custom Archery (
http://www.kennyscustomarchery.com/index.html  )or Binghams (  http://www.binghamprojects.com/  ).

If your looking for wood/self bow supplies, check out Pine Hollow Longbows (  http://www.pinehollowlongbows.com/  ).

I buy the majority of my bow-building supplies from Bingham's Archery out of Orem, UT.  I used to get some glass from Canada.  Sometimes it was real good, other times it was a bit cloudy.

I've bought a bunch from Binghams over the years and always gotten great service and materials.  Last order came in last weds with material for two bows, but one set of tapers was the wrong wood.  Made a phone call and the correct tapers arrived two days later, no charge of course.

That said, I'm going to order a few things from Kenny in 2012, just because he is such a knowledgeable and willing resource on this forum.

Trade , or harvest it myself. I buy glues, sandpaper and sealers at a local lumberyard or hardware.
