What does the description mean?
All of the descriptions below are all natural timber. Some are created when the trees are growing, and some occur during processing and drying.
If you have any further questions about any items, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Waney Edges
This is when the timber keeps 1 or 2 of the natural edges, which may or may not include the bark.
Surface Splits
They vary from shallow hairline splits to larger, wider splits on the timber's flat surfaces.
End grain split
These splits go into the wood from the cut ends of the timber.
Loose Bits and Flaky Bits
This is when the wood has become softer in certain parts more than others, or there are soft waney edges.
Worm Holes and Bark Beetles
The holes are caused by insect attacks. All are treated before sale to ensure no further infestation.
1/4 SAWN
Is when the cut timber has horizontal grain. When cut like this, it is more sought after as it becomes a more stable timber, and oak shows off the medullary rays.
Planner Tares
These are caused by the planning machine, which smooths the timber. The tares are slight chipmarks on the smooth surfaces.
Saw Marks
Saw marks are from the milling process and sometimes get left on the surfaces to preserve the thickness of the timber.
Spalted
This is often a favorite of woodturners. It is when the wood has been attacked by fungi that it leaves black lines and various colours through the timber. It will not carry on growing while the wood is dry.
Rustic
This tends to be Slightly rough and ready timber; it can have varying colors, holes, soft bits, splits, shakes nail holes insect holes and so on
Cupped
This is when the wood concaves across its width.
Please note that the wood has been wiped with a damp cloth prior to photographs being taken. This is to show the timber's natural grain and features and for you to see what it would look like once oiled, waxed, or polished.
No stain has been applied to any of the wood shown. All colours seen are natural to the wood, unless otherwise stated.
