Tony_Bentley Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Anyone know a lumbermill that sells raw and untreated scraps for next to nothing? I'm looking for about a chord. Someone have a source in western WA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpine_Tom Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Would that be a major chord, or a minor chord? Augmented, perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 a lumbermill that sells raw and untreated scraps for next to nothing Why would they sell them for next to nothing to you when they can sell them for a profit elsewhere? What you really want is a processing business that will give you, say, the 1/4" ends they mill off a 2x4 when they make cabinets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony_Bentley Posted October 4, 2005 Author Share Posted October 4, 2005 Go look for deadfalls eh? I think there is an easier way. With hundreds of mills around here there is probably one that has what I am looking for. I remember stopping at one near Long Beach and bought a hundred pound bag for $10 of untreated, dry fir and cedar. I'm looking for another deal like this one.

mattp Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I think you generally want standing dead rather than deadfalls. These tend to be less rotten and drier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shapp Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Major construction sites, such as condos etc. will have big piles of scrap 2X dimmensional ends. Shouldn't be to hard to find, just ask at the job site for permission from the forman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
