1×2/ WDR up to 12×24 Timbers and Cants.

We work predominantly with full sawn rough material. Our facilities have the ability to custom size and surface your order to a 32nd of an inch.

Lamstock lumber is commonly used as a core component in engineered wood products due to its strength, stability, and dimensional consistency.

Some common uses are: Glued-Laminated Timber (Glulam), Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT), Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL), Finger-Jointed Lumber, and custom projects where strength and appearance are essential.
From day one, we have implemented a “two trees planted for every one cut down” policy as a sustainable forestry practice that is aimed at ensuring forest regeneration and environmental balance.

This approach helps maintain healthy forest ecosystems, supports the forest’s biodiversity, and contributes to carbon sequestration efforts.
Short answer: Yes!

Longer answer: With our in-house knife shop, ability to cut within a 32nd of an inch, and our various molders and machine capabilities, if you imagine it, we can cut it!
