The hard part seems to be finding finished pieces (1/8 - 3/16 - 1/4 etc, surfaced 2 sides) in a width over 4 or 5 inches! I'd be especially interested in sources for such things if you've got em!
 
I used Internet Lumber when I built my humidors. Though I got rough sawn and resawed and planed my own. I was able to get 1" rough and resaw it so I got 2 pieces 3/8" thick rather than using 1/4". I have some rough left over. What are you looking for?
 
I ended up scoring some really good pieces, uniform and wider than I could find anywhere else, at ebay

this seller cuts wood for a living and at the time I was able to win 5 auctions of 4 planks each, good product, price and service
