Natural Character
Ash typically has a light tan to pale brown appearance with a bold, open grain pattern. It accepts stains and finishes well, making it a versatile choice when you want the grain to remain visually prominent.
Natural variation may include mineral streaks, small knots, and differences in grain or color. These are normal characteristics of genuine hardwood.
Milling and Size Notes
Boards are milled square and straight, but slight variation can occur because wood is a natural material.
Boards may be slightly over length to allow for final trimming. Widths are milled to the listed size and may vary slightly within the stated tolerance.
The finished thickness is approximately 7/8" after surfacing and sanding.
Wood Movement and Acclimation
Solid wood naturally expands and contracts as humidity changes. We recommend allowing your boards to acclimate to your shop or installation environment before final milling or installation.
Finishing
Ash works well with a variety of finishes, including oil finishes, polyurethane, hard-wax oils, and wood stains.
For the best result, test your chosen finish on an offcut before applying it to your finished project.
