Which cut line is correct? Don't know, both sides are screwed twisted beyond belief. This is the start cut, the first 2.5" inches are for kid's projects.... Another chance at loosing a finger or two. The worse part is that these were the best picks of the day. Every other 2X6 (1.5x5.5 for the non-retarded among us) were worse splintered, bent, twisted. They need to dry the wood slowly in a well spaced stack. I wouldn't wish any of this wood on anyone for anything.

What were you expecting out of framing lumber?

Get used to it because Trump will certainly make it harder and harder to get wood from Canada into the US and Canadian wood is of higher quality because it grows more slowly.

Brotip: The Depot isn't even cheap, it's just bad. At least in my region, framing lumber from small-time lumber yards is like 2-4% cheaper than the same stuff at a Home Depot or Lowe's, while simultaneously being considerably better stock. I get custom orders like doors and windows faster and cheaper too. I saved a couple hundred bucks on a flooring project by skipping the Depot a few weeks back.

Fuck the box stores. Slow, expensive, and bad. They have nothing left but brand recognition.

Wrong community, but at the same time you're right.

I mean it is some shit wood that could become a shit post.

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 8 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

There are people who wish wood upon others?

[–] Holyginz@lemmy.world 2 points 57 minutes ago

I mean, I have, but it was a wildly different type of wood and different circumstance.
