Any problem with using unplaned 1" thick bandsawn white pine for hive bodies and
and other wooden ware ?
and other wooden ware ?
Band sawn lumber should be uniform thickness even when rough sawn. If it isn't it means you need a new Sawyer. Because the one you have is either in a hurry or doesn't know what he is doing.
Sounds like you are all set! I would go for it!Not going to be a problem finding flat and true 7" wide roughsawn boards for medium boxes.
Have 3 thousand BF to choose from
Thanks for all the pointers
Quarter sawn will cup the least, flat sawn will cup the most, rift sawn somewhere in between.Also, the only board that will NOT cup some when drying is a true quarter sawn one, and even those can do strange things if the grain isn't dead straight or they are not weighted well enough. Anything else the wood shrinks more across the grain than along it, so it's not gonna be flat when it's dry, nor square anymore.
