I get all my wood from David Dyke:

You can probably get it cheaper elsewhere (and I don't know how Brexit will work sending wood between uk and Ireland...). I've never worried about cost to be honest, as I only build one every 18 months so it's never worth trying to save £20 here or there. If you do go here, ask them to radius your fretboard for a tenner - it's a horrible job!
Guitars and Wood in Portugal are great for tools and templates, and there's at least one luthier I've chatted to on Instagram that that uses them for wood:

I’ve used G’n’W for the odd bit of wood as well and it was great (same as with everything else they do). I love them, they’re fast becoming the European StewMac.
I actually used them recently (post-Br*xit) to buy a fretboard radiusing jig. Thinking I’d just take the hit on duties and VAT... it arrived within 2 days as usual, and I wasn’t charged anything.

You're making this sound like a far more sensible idea than I expected haha!
Any recommendations for where to find neckthrough blanks?
