Private Stock Lumber (update 5/18/21 - finally!)
When we buy lumber, it is rough sawn and very hard to see what the lumber will ultimately look like. We rarely get to pick and choose each piece of lumber, and sometimes we find beautiful surprises when we send a piece through our planer to get the first glimpse of its character. We sometimes find pieces that were sliced from the same log, and when they are placed next to each other they have symmetry in the markings- this is called bookmatched. We have a bad habit of hoarding these pieces as our private stock, but we don't need any more furniture and we don't have the space to keep all of it!

On this page we are offering some choice pieces of lumber and/or bookmatched pairs for an additional cost. These are the kind of things that are hard to find when you go looking for them! Most of these pieces are 7' long or longer (finishing at 3/4" thick) and could be used as a console table, coffee table or desk, as a headboard, or featured in the center of a dining table. Some pieces could work well for a queen headboard + a nightstand top. Because we sell more beds than anything, I have indicated the largest headboard size we could make from these, but any would be great for a table as well.

If you like something that's only 18" and you need 24", for example, we can usually find a suitable smaller board to add to it. We also may have some super wide walnut boards, curly ambrosia maple, curly ash - feel free to ask. We do also have access to thicker walnut and live edge pieces. Please realize that our lighting is not great and these boards are unsanded and unfinished. Boards will be straight line ripped before glue-up, knots will be filled with epoxy, everything will be planed and sanded and the lumber will appear a lot darker/richer when oiled and more lively in sunlight (especially the curly pieces.)

UPDATE: The pandemic has made us incredibly busy with a huge volume of orders, for which we are so thankful. However, we have also weathered some labor and major supply issues over the past year that made us unable to keep up with our private stock inventory, or even to set aside time to look for it in our lumber stacks. We are working on it and appreciate your patience as we work through it!
