Scottish Hardwood Supplier - Sawmilled and Kiln Dried Timber

<body> <h1>Scottish Hardwood Supplier - Sawmilled and Kiln Dried Timber</h1> We supply to individuals and trade, expert and novice. Our history so far has had more of a leaning towards catering for the amateur woodworker or home improver, as well as small professional furniture making and craft businesses. <br> <h2>Sawn Boards</h2> A large proportion of our boards will be stored and presented “rough sawn”. We saw generously so usually the boards will be 1-3mm oversize, but measured at the standard size.<br><br> There are no standard widths in the UK hardwood industry. Our boards are anything from 3” up to 24”, with very occasional boards up to 48”.<br> These may sometimes exhibit water marks and weathering on the faces which will generally only go down 1mm or so, but occasionally 3 to 4mm will need to be removed to clean up the surface properly. In any case you will generally need to plane 3 to 4 mm off the original thickness in order to straighten the boards, depending on board width and length, unless it is a very rustic project in which case sanding only may be sufficient.<br><br> Pricing : these boards are rarely pre-priced, so will be measured and priced as you are selecting. Patrick will help with handling and choosing boards if required as he is an experienced Scottish Hardwood Supplier.<br><br> <h2>Planed Boards</h2> planed board picA constant selection of ‘planed’ or ‘dressed’ boards is kept in the timber store. These have been planed 1 face and then thicknessed so both faces are parallel and dressed. The edges are left off saw or waney. The boards are presented for easy SELF SELECTION.<br><br> These boards are all pre-priced with labels showing the species, thickness of the board, provenance (read more about provenance in About Us) and price including vat.<br><br> Patrick can plane boards to order selected from the Sawn boards stock, sometimes while you wait but more usually with about a 7 day turn around.<br><br> The thicknesses will generally be at least 0.25” / 6mm less than the standard sawn board sizes listed above.<br><br> The widths will be maximum 24 “ as that is the max that goes through our planer.<br><br> As a leading Scottish Hardwood Supplier the boards are supplied: <br><br> <h2>waney edge</h2> a) with waney edges (ie with the bark still on both edges).<br><br> <h2>square edge</h2> b) square edged (2 edges sawn straight before drying which will have moved slightly in the drying process and no longer be perfectly straight) .<br><br> c) 1 square edge, 1 waney edge.<br><br> <h2>Squares, Branchwood, Burrs and Blanks</h2><br><br> Squared timber is supplied usually in lengths up to 30” / 750mm for table legs or woodturning. Branchwood is supplied for furniture uses or woodturning, usually in Yew, Laburnum, Cherry and Boxwood. See ‘stock’ for current supplies.<br><br> Burrs are stocked in rough lumps and slices, mostly Elm, sometimes Oak or Lime.<br><br> A very limited range of woodturning blanks is sometimes offered or at least some offcuts from boards from which you can cut your own disc blanks.<br><br> <h2>Whacky and Unusual Shaped Hardwood</h2> Unusual, wild and whacky shaped boards are a bit of a speciality. You can hang them on the wall or choose to make something out of them such as tea light mounts on the wall, signage or clocks. You are only limited by your imagination!<br><br> <h2>Beams</h2> A selection of beams for structural building work or over-mantels for fireplaces are usually available in Oak and various softwoods. These are either Green (fresh sawn and wet) or Partially Seasoned, so some shrinking and cracking will occur. Give us your sizes and we will see whether we have anything in stock to suit.<br><br> <h2>Species of Hardwood available</h2> alder ~ apple ~ ash ~ beech ~ birch ~ boxwood ~ brown oak ~ cedar ~ cherry ~ cypress crab apple ~ elm ~ elm burr ~ hawthorn ~ hazel ~ holly ~ hornbeam ~ horse chestnut laburnum ~ larch ~ lime ~ maple ~ mulberry ~ oak ~ oak burr ~ olive ash ~ pear plum ~ poplar ~ sweet chestnut ~ sycamore ~ walnut ~ whitebeam ~ willow ~ yew<br><br> We have become a very popular choice for those looking for a Scottish Hardwood Supplier.<br> <a href="http://www.scottish-hardwood-supplier.co.uk/scottish-hardwood-supplier.htm">Scottish Hardwood Supplier</a> <a href="http://www.lanarkshirehardwoods.co.uk/">Sawmilled and Kiln Dried Timber</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/index.htm">hardwood central scotland</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/about.htm">hardwood glasgow</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/services.htm">hardwood edinburgh</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/stock.htm">hardwood lanark</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/gallery.htm">hardwood lanarkshire</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/contact.htm">timber merchants</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/links.htm">dressed hardwood</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/services2.htm">planed hardwood</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/gallery2.htm">oak supplier scotland</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/about2.htm">sawn boards</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/stocklists/stockimperial.htm">planed boards</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/about3.htm">waney edged wood</a> <a href="http://www.j.price.freeuk.com/lanarkshirehardwoods/stocklists/stockmetric.htm">beams</a> <br> copyright 2007 - Lanarkshire Hardwoods - Leading UK Scottish Hardwood Supplier of Sawmilled and Kiln Dried Timber<br> </body>
