BOARD FOOT:
Lumber is sold in this manner. Example: 1" thick,
6" wide and 2´ long = 1 bd. Ft.
|
MOISTURE CONTENT:
All lumber is kiln dried to 7% - 9% M.C. except Cedar which
usually runs 12% - 15%.
|
THICKNESS:
Rough lumber is measured on the 1/4" system. 4/4=1" -
5/4=1-1/4" - 8/4=2". Most 4/4 is cut 1-1/8" and will plane to 3/4" or 13/16.
|
SURFACING:
Most lumber we sell is in the rough. Generally it is better
to plane and size wood just before it is put in the project. We will surface two sides
for $.25 bd. ft. on advance notice only. Wide belt sanding with a 120 Grit Belt is also
available on one side for $.20 bd. ft. Lumber must be surfaced before sanding. Minimum
sanding fee is $5.
|
STRAIGHT LINE RIP (1 Edge):
Lumber is tallied before ripping. Loss averages 10% to 15%. Price is $0.15 bd. ft. $3.00 minimum.
|
WIDTHS AND LENGTHS:
Our lumber comes in random widths and lengths.
It usually ranges 4" - 12" wide and 8´ - 12´ long. Hardwood lumber is not cut on the
exact inch for width.
|
GRADES:
Select yields 83% or better - used where large clear
cuttings are desired.
Log Run - a random sample of grades just as it comes from the mill.
1 common yields a minimum of 66% - excellent for most small to medium projects.
2 common yields 50% - 70% - or better on small projects.
Sap Wood is not considered a defect.
|
QUANTITIES:
We have no minimum purchase on orders picked up. There
is a 100 bd. ft. minimum on orders shipped motor freight and ground shipments are
packed only in approximately 20 bd. ft. bundles.
