Hello St. Louis friends.  I have a project that i am working on, but i need about 500 SF of barn wood.  I have asked a few people who owned abandoned looking barns if i could buy from them, but havent had any takers.  Does anyone have a suggestion on how i could find this?  I am going to try craigslist, but not sure what else to try.

I've heard pallet wood can have the same aesthetic effect.  Never tried it, but a friend of mine used it to finish a bar in his basement and I thought it looked great. I think you might have to stain the wood first though.
