-If you have any questions please list them in the "comments" box upon check out and we will answer them when we confirm your order.

How exactly do I order wood in "Lumber" form online?
-Unless otherwise noted, all stock Lumber is listed with a "per board foot" price.
(select pieces and standard size items will be listed with a "piece" price)
-1 board foot =144 cubic inches
-To calculate your desired board foot amount:
(in inches) multiply length x width x thickness, and divide the total by 144
-this is your desired total board foot amount.
-When adding lumber to your shopping cart, please enter your desired board foot amount (to the nearest foot) and we will contact you with the actual amount that will be sent to you
(ex. if you order 25 BF of Bocote Lumber the actual amount may be 25.12 BF or 24.86 BF, etc.)
-orders are filled using random sizes in the listed dimensions (unless other wise noted in the "comments" box upon checkout) to ensure the best possible stock and to reach the desired board footage ordered.

How can I figure out my shipping cost?
-Shipping costs vary greatly depending on location.
-You may select your preferred method of shipping based on the "shipping rates chart" upon checkout and we will do our best to find the most cost effective way of packaging it.
(Please remember the chart is just a guide, actual rates will not be determined until all the wood has been packaged and weighed)
-We will contact you to confirm the shipping costs before ever running your credit card.
