Click the Shipping tab.... In this listing I'm selling a Red Oak board. This board is 37.75" long, 5" wide, and about 1" thick.  This is 4/4 lumber, which means it is "close" to 1" thick.  It is right off the saw, from my local Amish sawmill, and it was "skip planed", which means the faces were cleaned up a little (to see the grain), but the board was still left as thick as possible. Kiln dry between 6-8%. This is 4/4 lumber, which means it came direct from the sawmill and is kiln dry. 4/4 lumber is generally between 7/8 inch and 1.125 inches thick, and will need further sanding or planing before use.

I do custom cutting all the time, and post what you need right up here. Scroll saw folks love us, because we have wood 1/16" thick, on up. I carry Aspen, Black Walnut, Black Cherry, Red Oak, White Oak, Maple, Poplar, Alder, Red and Grey Elm, White Ash, Purpleheart, Bloodwood, Knotty Pine, Mahogany, and many, many more. Yup, we do that too. We ship worldwide. Our biggest international buyer seems to be Australia, but we love all our international shoppers. Yup, we have that too. I carry Aspen, Black Walnut, Black Cherry, Red Oak, White Oak, Maple, Poplar, Alder, Red and Grey Elm, White Ash, Purpleheart, Bloodwood, Knotty Pine, Mahogany, and many, many more. Some of it up to 12/4 thickness (that's 3"). 4/4, 5/4, 6,4, etc. Lumber, when purchased from the saw mill, is measured in "Quarters". When you see the term "4/4", you call that "four quarters". 5/4 is Five Quarters. 6/4 is Six Quarters. If the sawmill operator wants to cut a 1" board off the log, he sets his gauges to read "four quarters", or "4/4". If he wants a board 1.25" thick, he sets his sawmill thickness gauge to 5/4. If he's after a board 2" thick, he'd set the gauge to 8/4, and he'd call that "an eight quarter board". Board Foot If you take the length of a board (in inches), and multiply it by the width of the board (in inches), and it's a 1" (or 4/4...same thing) board, and then divide that by 144, your resulting number is the number of "board feet" in that board. For a board 4 feet long, and 6 inches wide, and 1" thick, the formula is (48 x 6 x 1 )/ 144, or 2 board feet. If that board was a "six quarter" board (6/4)...which we know is 1.5" thick, the formula would be 48 x 6 x 1.5 / 144. Square Feet Exactly as above, except you leave out the thickness in all cases. Thickness is ignored. Square Feet, is a surface measurement. Ripping a board If you took a board that was 8 feet long, and 6" wide, and cut it such that you now had two 8 foot boards, each being about 3" wide, you would need to perform a ripping cut on that board. In other words, a rip cut, is a lengthwise cut on a board. Cross Cut Is a cut "across" the width of a board. It would be like cutting an 8 foot board, into two 4 foot pieces. One cross cut, midway on the board, would give you two 4 foot pieces. Planing When a board comes direct from the sawmill, the faces of the board is often very rough. To get it smooth, it's run through a "planer". The act of doing so, is called "planing the board smooth". When you buy a board at your hardware store, it is usually already planed on both sides. When your hardware store buys their lumber, they buy 4/4 boards, and plane them down to 3/4"....and then tell you it's a 1" thick board. Hardware stores have problems measuring. Jointing Woodshops have a machine called a "jointer". It's purpose is to get the edges of a board nice and smooth. Often times, a scroll sawyer will put a frame around his scroll sawed art work, thus hiding the edges of the board. So, scroll sawyers will often not care if their boards are jointed, or not. Most of our boards are jointed, sometimes not. If clean edges matter to you, then ask if your boards will be jointed.   Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
