(1) Market conditions will cause these relationships to vary. These are raw costs without consideration of labor.
(2) Maximum practical sizes without lamination/gluing. Only 10% of any order is required to be at maximum sizes.
(3) These figures represent possible width change in a 12" board when moisture content is reduced from 10% to 5%. Figures taken are for plain sawn unless indicated otherwise in the species column.
