  1. Knots, warpage, checking, trying to find a “clear” piece of regular lumber is an impossibility. They all sell 3f lumber (or worse). Gone are the days of being able to find F1F lumber (clear, one face) on the regular rack. Even the “clear” lumber ain’t.

    Thanks, Biteme AND Turdeau, for screwing up Canadian lumber imports.

  2. Support your local lumber companies! Lowe’s and Home Depot have a huge market share that enriches the shareholders. Well meaning folks but its the smaller companies that need our support.

    I’m just starting a kitchen remodel, about $50K, and I took my business to the local lumber company. Yeah, I could save a few dollars with one of the big box stores but I opted for quality cabinets, appliances and service.
