I'm trying to get back into some woodworking. Since the great flood in

You must be one heck of an amateur meteorologist to predict a flood, and the rain causing it, 4 months in advance for Houston.




I'm going with preprimed pine boards from HD and glued up yellow pine
panel blanks for shelves from the same.

I have cut up all of the preprimed boards and must say that I'm
impressed with the quality of the product. 1x8x8' boards were just
under $17 each and 2 will do it.



5.33 board feet. $3.19 per board foot. I'm not up to date on wood pricing. Is that a good price for pine? I assume its Firsts and Seconds grade.


Aren't most of those preprimed pine boards made from fingerjointed narrower stock
like most paint-grade pine moulding?


If so, you need to be careful where you cut/rip it. Depending on how
well it was glued, you might run into issues if you cut too close to a
joint. BTDT


No, this is well manufactured. The wood under the primer looks great.
