J.R. Simpson Lumber - Quarter Sawn Lumber

Quarter sawn lumber is a special cut made to logs so that the grain is straight in the cross section (Figure 1.) and the surface has a highly sought after pattern in the furniture industry (figure 2).

The rings in quarter sawn lumber run vertically up the cross section rather than form circlesThis pattern in quarter sawn lumber is called fleck, and is highly attractive for furniture.

We specialize in quarter sawn red and white oak lumber.  Straight grain and heavy fleck lumber are available in both green and kiln dried states.  The above product can be purchased by the lift or trailer load quantities.  Contact J.R.
