Slabs and Lumber

Slabs

We have a tremendous variety of slabs from a selection of local hardwood species, in lengths from 4 feet to 20 feet, widths from 12 inches to 60 inches, and most commonly a thickness of 2.5 inches. We sometimes vary thicknesses when required by a specific project, but over the years we have found 2.5 inches is thick enough to account for the warping that slabs tend to experience while drying and allow for plenty of choice when it comes time to design a piece.      
      Drying is included with all slab sales. Flattening and sanding are available for additional fees.    

Lumber

      We also produce lumber in a range of thicknesses, from 4/4 (“four quarter”, 1” thick) to 12/4. Boards are milled      at least 6” wide. We will mill quarter, rift or flat sawn lumber depending on the species and size of the log and      what types of lumber we will need for upcoming projects. Custom milling is available upon request.    

Custom Milling Available

      Do you have a log you need sawn into slabs or lumber? Call us for our current hourly rate. We are      happy to mill to your specifications and can help with transportation of logs and boules as well.
