As with everything else in Bangkok, there's not just one but a whole street of them. I don't remember the name of the wood road, but it's on Rattanakosin, Banglamphu area, just go to the Khao Saen area, preferably armed with a picture of some sort and ask a taxi driver where all the raan mai are. About five minutes taxi drive away, you'll be spoilt for choice.

thanks jitagon... i like when there's a whole street of one thing! one stop shopping.

Yup - there's a whole street of them - and there is some really nice stuff if you look carefully (illegal hardwoods, if that what you have in mind - meaning: large/long/knot free pieces of old/mature teak and mahogny)- usualy out of site, but they'll show you - go with someone you know who speaks Thai and knows what you're looking for.
