In Response To: Re: Red Cedar Lumber Grades for strip building? (Don Sherwood)
Here, cedar in "D" and "Aye" grades is available.
The "D" is less expensive but has knotts and is only available up to 16' lengths.
The "Aye" is more expensive ($140 for 3 - 20' 2x4's) but has no knotts and is available to 20'.
Clear Redwood is also available to 20'. It's also expensive.
Dan
: Specify "D-Select Western Red Cedar", which is virtually knot-free.
: For example, you might say something like: "I would like 120 lineal
: feet of 1" x 6" D-Select Western Red Cedar".
