The Wood Room

Our wood room is stocked with lumber that is generally two inches thick, and preferably sawn "through and through" (across the entire width of the log). "Rotary cut" lumber, commonly available, is a production method that gets a larger yield of dimension lumber, but destroys continuity from plank to plank out of the same log.

Elements of a project are bandsawn from rough stock with attention paid to grain graphics and character.

The ability to select parts from a plank or from related planks is one important step in the process of obtaining the harmony evident in a well thought-out piece.
