Sorry but it was sold about 15 mins after offering it to Saul, Elm is something we dont come across very often these days, but it dont take long to sell thou,,

No worries, I can always get it from the moaning Scots, just prefer to not transport so far if I get the chance.

 

I was offered some local ones recently but not sure if this is still on.

Felled and milled this oak for a client to use for a timber frame we will build at some point in the future.

Very nice! 

 

What was the dimensions asked for?

Mostly 6x6 beams, 6x2s 2x4s and some roofing baton type stuff. I also cut some 6x30mm boards for a bridge he wants to build.

[AHPP]

Are hardwood beams usually cut full dimension (as opposed to nominal dimensions commonly used on softwood where a 2x4 is actually 1.75”x3.5”)? So would an oak 2x4 actually measure 2”x4”?
