Where can I find wood for a relatively low cost? It seems impossible to find some wood to do a project on that won't end up costing a fortune. If you know please reach out it would help out a lot! Thank you and have a great day!
I have found that the Facebook Marketplace tends to be full of stuff people either want to get rid of for very cheap or even for free.
Not too long ago I made a really nice shelf out of a table I got for free through Facebook Marketplace. So get creative and look around at 2nd hand markets.
This is also very hit-and-miss, but if you’re in the US you may have a ReStore in your area, try them! As far as actual, raw, building materials are concerned, mine tends to have a lot of ceramic tile, but they’re all different.

Like OmniOwl above, I bought something (a cabinet) to strip for parts (mostly birch plywood, some solid wood trim, and obviously hardware). Still saving most of it, it’s nicer than the stuff I can afford otherwise!
I wouldn’t bother with all of the the “use pallet wood” suggestions that are out there, waste of time IMO. Good luck!
When doing this work you will need good window replacement Brisbane contractors as well to make sure it is sound proof.
