Recommended Reviews
Very nice store. Great selection and wide variety of goods.
I so wanted to do business there. Researched places to buy koa wood while on a cruise around the islands. Called the store as we arrived in Hilo to confirm koa inventory. Arrived and was pleasantly surprised by the inventory - many nice pieces to choose from. Located in a back corner of the store, I chose a board and then looked for an employee to help me in getting the board cut into pieces I could pack in luggage. No joy. I was prepared to buy a $70 piece of koa yet no one would make two cuts in a 1x4 board! I should have purchased a handsaw, used it in the parking lot, and then returned the damn saw! Rather shortsighted, in my opinion.
Great at locating all the specific parts on this island. Also has the option for full on house plans. More specific than Home Depot, if ever needed.
