Y'all Been Checkin' Lumber Prices?

At the end of my driveway, I am selling 2x6x8 white oak 3$ a piece or 4 for 10$ and nobody seems to need it.

Nobody has even stolen any, lol

You are not gonna build a house with it but good cheap lumber.

I will just keep playing w my sawmill

Is grading or grade stamps rewired when used in residential construction?

Do you need a licensed electrician for that?

Where do you live? True 2" rough sawn thick, or 1.5" ? I'd buy a pile, especially if you could cut 10' long boards, and not 8's.

Auto correct strikes again.

I could use some white oak.

Yes, on white oak. I used oak for my wood fence runners, 2x6x8, and they lasted for 20 years. If you close to west Alabama.

Rhode Island

Current pile is 1.5x5.5
Can do 10s or 8 or whatever

I wasn稚 sure if people would want true 2x6 or lumber dimension size

Wlll cut next at 2x6

plastikosmd - I sent you a pm but I see you are in Rhode Island, so you're a little far for me.

 

[mred2]

A little far for me also. But would love to see the area this time of year or even latter with the snow. Pretty part of the world.

There are other options if your building codes allow. Here is 4910 board feet of 18'and 20' framing lumber that I sawed this week for a customer's new home. That was 194 ea. 2X6's and 28 ea. 2X12's; his cost $1473. I will be sawing additional 2X6's and 2X4's next week plus 10X10 Red Oak for the entrance columns.

Man I wish I could get away with using that lumber. Building inspector wouldn’t allow it, it’s a racket.

For comparisons sake, few months ago I bought a bunk of 2x6x16 Doug Fir #2, 189 pieces, $4000
