I was wondering what people are paying for their timbers. Also do you buy by the board foot or the running foot. Thanks.

Dave

Hi Dave,

From a local sawyer with a Woodmizer in Stephentown, NY (not too far from you...), I recently paid:

$0.68/bdft for white pine ($1.00/bdft for 20' long pieces, $1.55 for 32' long))
$1.35/bdft for all-heart white oak (20' and 24' long)

Cheers,
Dan

Hi Dan, Steve has a beautiful Woodmizer. Unless there's someone else in Stephentown with a 48' mill.

Hey guys. Any chance you can connect me to this guy in Stephentown. Sounds like he is affordable,close by me and experienced with timber frame orders. Just wanted to get a rough estimate from him for my timber list for this Dutch barn I am projecting. With the 48' foot extension, sounds like he could provide all the dimensions I would need. Thanks. tb
