About six board foot per stick comes to about $1.65 per bf. That's a darn good deal for cherry.
Eh...wot?

in 2021 a 2x4-8foot is 5.99 construction stud grade
it would be cheaper for you to build a house out of cherry than doug fur at your wood price
I would say you got a deal
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Sounds like you are buying the centers of the cants. Perhaps turners prefer them?
I was recently told maple and walnut up and cherry down in price. Probably because I was asking for walnut lol.

Not the centers. Too much unstable wood around the center, He is cutting on the sides, and doing a couple of 3x3's in quarter sawn Cherry. Depending on what is in the log , it should look really nice !

I am cutting a bunch of white oak slabs up for sticks at the moment to do a remodel on the chicken coop after I looked at lumber at home depot i went to building with the oak that I have instead.
Let's go Brandon
