8/4 Cost Per Boardfoot Versus 4/4 Cost?
Would someone explain to me why 8/4 cost per boardfoot is
almost twice the cost of 4/4 per boardfoot? I don't under stand how 4/4 oak is around $3.30 a boardfoot and an 8/4 is close to $7.00 a boardfoot. Rough cut in both cases too. Again, the measurements are in boardfoot so the thickness shouldn't cost more on a boardfoot basis, Otoe |

Steve Wall www.walllumber.com lists red oak 10" or more 4/4 at $3.20/BF and 8/4 at $3.85/BF. Doesn't say if the 8/4 is the 10" or more, if not, 4/4 select is $2.70, so 8/4 is $1.15/BF more or $3.30/LF more than 4/4. $3.85 vs. $2.70 is 42% higher. Maybe it's the supplier you are using -- If you're going to be dumb, you better be tough |

The bigger it is, the more it costs and the increase in price is a curve, not linear. |

8/4 Cost Per Boardfoot Versus 4/4 Cost?
Think of it this way, is a 4 carat diamond only double the price of a 2
carat diamond? The bigger it is, the more it costs and the increase in price is a curve, not linear. But that's assuming larger sizes are rarer. In the case of lumber, shouldn't thicker boards require FEWER cuts, and therefore be cheaper per bf? To a certain extent, of course - I understand that super wide stuff is rare. I also understand that lumber prices vary a great deal by location, but I don't know how that would affect 8/4 vs. 4/4 pricing. Really I don't know much about lumber pricing and wood product economics, just tossing out my ideas. For something a little more concrete than ideas, I'll toss out the link to my favorite lumber dealer, where bf prices for 8/4 are generally $1 more than the 4/4 prices. http://www.lakeshorehardwoods.com/LumberPricing.html Oak, Peruvian walnut, and mahogany are the only species with a bigger price disparity between 8/4 and 4/4, so maybe it's harder to find (or to sell) 8/4 oak for some reason.

If you cut thick lumber from smaller trees, you're going to get more instability in the resulting lumber. jc |

Really I don't know much about lumber pricing and wood product economics, just tossing out my ideas. The price is on a curve because a tree only gives up so many boards. The wider, or thicker, the board, the fewer it gives up. Sure, there's a tad less waste with thicker lumber, but there are also fewer 2x6s in a log than there are 1x6s. The law of supply and demand for a tree simply states that when you get fewer of an item out of a particular basic material, you have to charge more per unit for that item. That said, a few years ago, I lucked onto some 12/4 and 16/4 8" wide cherry that has lasted me until recently...at a price that was giveaway. Fortunately for me, the tree's owner didn't want the thick boards, so the mill sold them to me for $75 (basically, a full-sized pick-up load, with board ends almost dragging the ground all the way home (3 miles). I never figured the board feet, but the shortest board was 10' and the longest 13'. A guess gives me roughly 250 bf. The best part: a LOT of flame cherry in that mess (also a LOT of scrap). |

Well, yeah, but *that*much* more? Interesting thing, though -- at the lumber supplier just up the road from me http://www.northwestlumberco.com/domestic.php the price premiums for 8/4 vs. 4/4 are 14% for ash, 25% for cherry, 20% for cypress, 25% for poplar, 50% for walnut -- all about what I'd expected -- and 68% for red oak and 78% for white oak! Why would the premium be so much more for oak than for cherry? And why is it only 4% on hard maple? -- Regards, Doug Miller (alphageek at milmac dot com) It's time to throw all their damned tea in the harbor again. |

To justify the time the slower moving product sits on the shelf the seller marks up the price to justify the time and space being taken up. |

I can't even begin to guess: I wouldn't pay a cent premium for any thickness of white or red oak, but around here, red oak is a near dominant species (tulip poplar beats it, as does SYP), and white oak is plentiful. In fact, so is cherry and walnut and ash and...I've always been willing to buy green and rough and wait a couple, three years, which is a fine way to save a LOT of money on wood, if you have a planer and jointer on hand. |

Call it a "benefit of variety" mark up if you will. If the larger slower moving board has a turn over rate of 2 per year and the turn over rate on the smaller board is 6 times a year it would make more sense to not stock the slower moving larger board and stock more of the faster turning boards or mark the larger boards up so that the total sales profit is the same for either board in any given year. Every square foot in a warehouse and or retail floor space is an expense that has to be considered when deciding on how much of what to stock so that the net profit remains in the black. |

"Otoe" wrote in message Would someone explain to me why 8/4 cost per boardfoot is almost twice the cost of 4/4 per boardfoot? Otoe The primary legitimate reason for 8/4 costing more than 4/4 is based on *grading* of the lumber. It is more difficult to get the same grade when sawing 8/4 as compared to 4/4. If the lumber is not graded there is minimal justification for a higher price. |

I can't believe how much people pay for quality wood. Do a google
search for sawmills in your area, also check http://www.switchboard.com for them. Then go talk to the owner. Most small sawmills will sell you whatever you need. I've bought as little as one board, or 1000bft lots. If you can dry your own wood, it gets even cheeper. The last lot of birdseye maple I bought was $1.00 a board foot, $0.50 for character grade walnut, and $0.50 for cherry. Here's a link to some cheep lumber in East Tennessee: http://www.tpost.com/results.aspx?key=lumber And the ads online today: KILN DRIED LUMBER Red Oak, White Oak, Hard Maple, Soft Maple, Walnut, Poplar, Hickory, Ash & Cherry Call for info & prices LUMBER 500 BD ft kiln dried cherry, 8' lengths, 6-8" widths, 1" thick $500 LUMBER CEDAR LUMBAR, 510lf $1020 for all LUMBER CEDAR, 100 board foot $200 for all LUMBER CHERRY AND walnut 100 board feet $150 2500 FT LUMBER MIXED CHERRY, Walnut, Oak, Poplar $1500 LUMBER WALNUT, 220+ bft, kiln dried, lv msg $500 LUMBER WALNUT, 500' +, 35yr seasoned $600, also 100' of Wormy Chestnut $150 You can find locally produced wood from your area just as cheep if you look hard enough. Also, go the the websites of portable sawmills, (Woodmizer, etc.) They have lists of people who have bought their machines. Find someone in your area and contact them. Have them call you when they have lumber to sell.

If you think his figures show a 50 buck savings, then you need to back off and re-think. A buck a board foot for kiln dried cherry should yield sufficient FAS, commons and whatnot to save at least 500 bucks. If you get lucky, that amount could triple. Can you borrow a truck for a day? Attach a trailer to your Saturn? One of the fine advantages to country living is that what I don't have, my friends or neighbors do have, so hauling pretty much anything isn't a hassle, except for the work and the gas. |
