Ok, so doesn't look like any takers.

I just spoke to the guy at the company I'm thinking of going through, and we discussed doing a short sample run (~5 fascias).

I'm interested in using stabilized wood (wood that is treated with a polymer in a process not unlike pressure treating) to prevent the kind of breakage problems some experienced with the earlier wooden fascias. This process would also give the finished product a very glossy finish.

If nobody has any suggestions, I think I'm going to consider just doing the sample run with the woods I personally like, if it isn't cost prohibitive; initial setup on stuff like this is where the majority of the cost is.

If anyone has any interest, please let me know, as it could be what determines if I actually do this. I figure it could be a nice way to fill the "cool fascia" void until Brandon and I can get the aluminum ones out.

If I do the initial sample run, I was thinking of using the following:


Again, if anyone is interested, please let me know.
