Hard or easy - it is a matter of opinion of course. But what I mean is that when I need good quality pine I have always found it, and without too much trouble. Shops differ also - some are more reliable than others (I do not know where to go around Stockholm). Fir on the other hand (that I use for strip building) is mostly crap - takes a lot of rummaging about the lumber piles to come up with anything decent.

Good luck
Björn
