Buying stickers?

[Ghettoblaster]

Hi there

 

I'm in need of quite a lot of stickers and don't have the time or appropriate timber to mill my own.

 

Can anybody point me in the direction of somebody who can supply such things?

 

I have seen people, mainly in the states and Canada, using plastic stickers. Anyone know where I can get these in the UK? Have done some googeling but didn't turn up much. If not wooden ones are fine.

 

Much appreciated

 

Will

I went to my local sawmill and he filled my 7.5t with stickers for a £5

Where are you based? Unfortunately I'm in London so not too many local sawmills!

If your desperate, buy a load of roof batterns

[Ghettoblaster]

I did think that but the trend now seems to be to stain roofing batterns red or blue, god knows why. I have previously been ripping construction off cuts but this takes an age and is very wasteful. You ever had a problem with tanalised timber for stickers?

Cheers

I mill a fair amount of stickers, and have supplied them to customers and small millers for 24p each. I cut 3/4in thick and 1.1m long (normally 1in wide but can vary by batch), usually as a by product of planking so it can be a bit boom and bust. Larch, Doug, WR Cedar, Sweet Chestnut. All well behaved and safe for whitewoods.

 

I've no idea how that stacks up alongside roof batten?

I can cut you some,based near guildford Surrey, have lots of soft woods that I can mill for sticks. How much are you after

[Ghettoblaster]

All sorted now guys, thanks for the offers though!

Bought a pallet of 2x1 offcuts for £50, all 1m long and worked out to be about £0.07 each and half that when I rip them in 2, bargain!
