PRICE LIST Add $.70 Per Board Foot for Widths (In the Rough) FALL - 2021 Over 8 Inches 83 Dover Road (US Route 4) Chichester, NH 03258 Tel. No. 603-798-5135 Fax No. 603-798-3254 www.goosebaylumber.net DEFINITION OF TERMS USED IN THIS BROCHURE “PREMIUM” - Pine grade formerly known as #2 and #3. “STD” (Standard) - the Pine grade #4. “D & BTR” - includes all of the select grades. May be some small tight knots, but is generally free of defects. “FAS” (First & Seconds) - superior “Furniture Grade” Hardwoods. Some minor defects are allowed. “S3S” – planed 2 faces and straight-line ripped on one edge. “S4S” - both faces and both edges planer-finished. “RGH” – rough – not planed. “ECB” – Edge & Center Bead. “CMG” - clear mixed grain. “CVG” - clear vertical grain. “D4S” - dressed four sides. “T & G” - tongue and groove. “S1S2E” - finished one face and two edges. “A+” & “D+” - softwood select grade. “QUARTER MEASURE” Lumber size is often referred to as 4/4 (pronounced FOUR-QUARTER), 5/4 (FIVE-QUARTER), 6/4 (SIX-QUARTER), etc. This refers to the thickness of the lumber when it is first sawn, and in its rough state. The size increases in 1/4” increments. 5/4 lumber measures one and one-quarter inches, or five 1/4” increments. When surfaced, the lumber is generally planed to 1/4” less than its rough dimension. For example, 5/4 lumber is usually dressed to 1”, and 4/4 would be dressed to 3/4”. To calculate “Board-Foot” measure (BF or Bd. Ft.), use the following formula and the board’s rough dimensions: Thickness (in inches) X Width (in inches) X Length (in feet) 12 Example: 1” X 6” X 10’ divided by 12 = 5 Bd. Ft. Example: 3” X 4” X 16’ divided by 12 = 16 Bd. Ft. GOOSEBAY SAWMILL & All prices are per board foot unless otherwise noted. LUMBER PRICE LIST Add $.70 per board foot for widths (in the rough) FALL - 2021 over 8 inches. Add $1.50 per board foot for extra wide.

    CHARACTERISTICS OF TEN TROPICAL HARDWOODS FROM CERTIFIED FORESTS IN BOLIVIA PART I WEATHERING CHARACTERISTICS AND DIMENSIONAL CHANGE R. Sam Williams Supervisory Research Chemist Regis Miller Botanist and John Gangstad Technician USDA Forest Service Forest Products Laboratory1 Madison, WI 53705-2398 (Received July 2000) ABSTRACT Ten tropical hardwoods from Bolivia were evaluated for weathering performance (erosion rate, dimensional stability, warping, surface checking, and splitting). The wood species were Amburana crarensis (roble), Anudenanthera macrocarpa (curupau), Aspidosperma cylindrocarpon Cjichituriqui), Astronium urundeuva (cuchi), Caesalpinia cf. pluviosa (momoqui), Diplotropis purpurea (sucupira), Guihourriu chodatiuna (sirari), Phyllostylon rhamnoides (cuta), Schinopsis cf. quebracho-colorudo (soto), and Tabeb~liuspp. (lapacho group) (tajibo or ipe). Eucalyptus marginatu Cjarrah) from Australia and Tectonu grandis (teak), both naturally grown from Burma and plantation-grown from Central America, were included in the study for comparison. The dimensional change for the species from Bolivia, commensurate with a change in relative humidity (RH) from 30% to 90%, varied from about 1.6% and 2.0% (radial and tangential directions) for Arnburunu cer~ren.risto 2.2% and 4.1% (radial and tangential) for Anadenanthera macrocarpu. The dimensional change for teak was 1.3% and 2.5% (radial and tangential) for the same change in relative humidity. None of the Bolivian species was completely free of warp or surface checks; however, Anadenanthera macrocarpu, Aspidosperma cy- lindrocurpon, and Schinopsis cf. quebracho-colorado performed almost as well as teak. The erosion rate of several of the wood species was considerably slower than that of teak, and there was little correlation between wood density and erosion rate. Part 2 of this report will include information on the decay resistance (natural durability) of these species.

  • Natural Durability of Narrow Leaved Ash (Fraxinus Angustifolia Vahl.) Wood from Planted and Natural Stands
    Ormancılık Dergisi 12(1) (2016) 30-39 Natural Durability of Narrow Leaved Ash (Fraxinus angustifolia Vahl.) Wood from Planted and Natural Stands Kamile TIRAK HIZAL1*6, Nurgün ERDİN2 Abstract Sustainability of natural forests is under pressure due to some social and economic problems existing in developing countries. In such countries, creation of new resources for wood production by plantation establishment is necessary in order to protect forest eco-system and to meet the demand for wood. Fast-growing plantations will be relied upon as a key element in meeting future demand for wood. Fraxinus angustifolia Vahl. (Narrow leaved ash-NLA) tree is the most important species for Turkey because of its fast growing ability and valuable wood. It is also used in parquet, sports tools, mine poles, and caique building. The exceptional property of ash is its bending ability and flexibility. NLA wood is known as non-resistant to fungi but there is no information about planted ash wood. For this reason, possible durability differences between planted and natural grown NLA wood was studied in this study. Natural durability of fast growing NLA species, grown in plantation and natural stands was evaluated by soil-block decay test method according to ASTM D- 2017 -05. The ash trees were felled down from Adapazarı and Sinop regions and then test specimens were exposed to a brown rot fungus Gloeophyllum trabeum, two white rot fungi Pleurotus ostreatus and Coriolus versicolor for 12 weeks. The natural durability was determined by the weight loss percentage of the test blocks. As a result, there is no significant different between plantation and natural grown NLA wood durability against brown and white rot fungi.

  • Small Scale Teak Plantations in Luang Prabang Province, Lao
    Small scale teak plantations in Luang Prabang province, Lao PDR - Silviculture, ownership and market ii Foreword This minor field study (MFS) was carried out as part of the requirements and corresponds to 10 credits on C level. The Department of Silviculture at the Swedish University of Agriculture Sciences has planned the study in co-operation with the National Agriculture and Forestry Research Institute (NAFRI) in Lao PDR with the objective to describe the silviculture practise in teak plantations established by small-scale farmers. Besides bio- physical aspects, tenure and market prospects both for plantations as well as for the wood have been discussed. Acknowledgement This study was funded by Sida (Swedish International Development Agency) as an MFS (Minor Field study). The MFS was hosted by the Lao-Swedish Upland Agriculture and Forestry Research Programme (LSUAFRP) which is a programme financed by Sida and run by the National Agriculture and Forestry Research Institute of Lao PDR (NAFRI) and Scandia consult Natura (SCC). The MFS took in place in Lao PDR in August and September 2003 and was written in Sweden later that year. We, Niklas Fogdestam and Helena Gålnander, would like to thank the following persons for their support and assistance during the time we have been working with this project: Mr Houmchitsavath, our guide and interpreter during the field days in Pone Xay district. Mr Olle Forshed, our mentor in professional as well as social life in Lao PDR. Mr Robert Nygård, our manager and supporter in Sweden who encouraged us to study our data more thoroughly than we thought possible.

  • Teak Furniture
    WILLIAMS SONOMA HOME TEAK FURNITURE NATURAL TEAK FURNITURE When it comes to long-lasting strength and enduring style, teak is truly a wood for all seasons. As this golden-brown hardwood is exposed to the elements, it will naturally weather to a classic silver-grey hue. • Our natural teak is designed to highlight the wood’s intrinsic beauty and unique grain. • Teak is a durable hardwood with a high content of silica and natural oils, so it’s extremely resistant to rotting, warping and splitting. • Teak is naturally water-resistant, allowing it to withstand any weather – from harsh sunlight to rain and snow. • Natural variations in the wood grain make every piece of teak furniture unique. FINISHED TEAK FURNITURE In addition to our natural teak collections, we offer furnishings finished with a matte wash. Unless it’s protected from the elements, the color of the finish will fade to the silvery grey patina that’s characteristic of untreated teak. Keep your furniture in top condition with these simple suggestions. • To preserve the beauty of your finished teak furniture, protect pieces with our custom-fit outdoor furniture covers. • Maintain the finish by applying a clear coat of polyurethane to the wood once or twice per year, depending on the weather in your area. • Remove any stains on your finished teak furniture by gently sanding the soiled area with 3M® Hand Pad. CARING FOR TEAK When your teak furniture is new, wood oils may surface to develop what look like water spots and streaks. These are part of the natural maturing process – and simple to remove with a few easy steps.
