Description: A nice piece of dry timber, great colour and grain, ready to use. End grain splits, surface splits, this slab has been planed although it will need sanding.

Due to its size it is collection only from Suffolk IP19 0LJ

Please note - 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 wood shown. All colors seen are natural to the wood.

What does the description mean?

All of the descriptions below are all natural in timber. Some are created when the trees are growing, and some occur whilst processing and drying.

If you have any further questions on any items, please don't hesitate to contact me.

The photos will show as many descriptions as possible.

Waney Edges

  • Dressed 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 & Flaky Bits

  • This is when the wood has become softer in certain parts more than others, or there are soft waney edges.

Wormholes & Bark Beetles

  • The holes are caused by insect attacks. All are treated before sale to ensure no further infestation.

1/4 SAWN

  • It is when the cut timber has a horizontal grain. When cut like this, it is more sought after, as it becomes a more stable timber, and in oak, it shows off the medullary rays.

Planer Tears

  • These are caused by the planning machine, which smoothes the timber. The tears are slight chip marks 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 then leaves black lines and various colors through the timber. It will not carry on growing whilst the wood is dry.

Rustic

  • This tends to be slightly rough and ready timber; it can have varying color, holes, soft bits, splits, shakes, nail holes, insect holes, and so on.

Cupped

  • This is when the wood concaves across its width.

I mill timber, which is suitable for all woodworking projects: Furniture making, Wood turning, Wood carving, DIY, hobbies, Crafts, Windows/Doors, Mantle pieces, Building projects, etc.

When selecting and milling the timber I use, I take my time to get the best from each tree, often working with the natural features and grain within a piece.

These natural features can often be such things as knots, splits, shakes, holes, beetle holes, Bark, etc.

Please take your time to look at each piece carefully to be sure you are happy with what you are buying. If you have any questions, please ask.

All timber is sustainably sourced. I buy trees that have died, blown over, have to be taken down due to disease, or are simply growing in the wrong place.
