"I was kind of skeptical about whether the wood would look as good as it did on the website. When I opened the box I was more than pleasantly surprised. Not only was the wood as advertised, it is something that I would have paid considerably more for at my local wood store."
"The delivery time from Ontario to Nova Scotia was faster than any Amazon product."
"There was a small issue with my order and they took care of it in minutes. Literally minutes. This was my first purchase and I will definitely be a repeat customer."
"This was the third time I ordered from here and every time the product has been great, every phone call answered was great help and very quick delivery."

8/4 White Oak Lumber β Quartersawn 5-Pack | Kiln-Dried Hardwood | S2S
Quartersawn White Oak is the premium cut of an already exceptional species and with 8/4 it becomes one of the most structurally superior building materials available in any domestic hardwood. Quartersawing the log at roughly 90 degrees to the growth rings reveals White Oak's spectacular medullary ray fleck: a shimmering, ribbon-like figure that runs across the face of every board and gives quartersawn White Oak its unmistakable, high-end appearance. At this thickness, that ray fleck runs through the full depth of furniture legs, door components, and architectural panels delivering a three-dimensional shimmer that flat sawn stock at any thickness simply cannot replicate. With a Janka hardness rating of ~1,360 lbf and significantly reduced seasonal movement compared to flat sawn, quartersawn White Oak is the choice of serious furniture makers, architects, and interior designers who refuse to compromise on either appearance or performance.
This 8/4 stock is surfaced 2 sides (S2S) to 1-7/8" and machines cleanly with sharp tooling, holds joinery well, and finishes to a smooth, elegant surface. Its superior dimensional stability makes it particularly well suited to large-format builds where wood movement needs to be kept to an absolute minimum.
