Calgary Lumber

Who in town has decent lumber? Looking for straight, clean, dry pine boards. Tall order, I know, but most of the big box stores have horrible stuff. Thanks for any tips.

Timber Town - Maybe?

anywhere you go as long as its a fresh bundle grab the would (wood)edit*(see thats why i am a carpenter)from the middle off the bundle .......pine comes very wet and twists as it dries after you buy it it is important to stack it all nice and neat together and put some straps around it to keep it straight ,also if it sits around in the sun it will twist and warp ...and if its not structural you can get finger joint studs they stay alot straighter then normal lumber but have absolutley no side load capacity they are just good for framing interior basement walls mostly

I bought all the PT wood for my fence from Windsor Plywood. They seemed pretty good and the boards we nice & straight, pretty wet still so if you plan on putting htem up right when you get them you should be golden.
