Beetle Kill Pine boards with dark blue stain

Architectural & Design specifications:

~ 200 square feet minimum order
~ Kiln dried to 6-8%
~ 3/4" thick
~ Widths available: 3 1/8", 5 1/8", and 7"
~ Random lengths up to 8'
~ T&G, micro bevel, and end-matched (T&G on the ends)
~ Graded to our 99% usable tolerances

OUR SECRET:

~ We hand pick beetle kill Ponderosa Pine trees that range from 100-400 years old.

~ Because of its thick bark Ponderosa Pines hold moisture in the tree 10x longer than commercially harvested Lodgepole Pine. This moisture allows the fungus from the mountain pine beetle to flourish and create the wide array of colors you see in our products.

~ Aged like a fine wine our timber stands dead in the forest for up to 5 years. The longer it stands dead naturally in the wild the richer and more dramatic the color will be.

~ We visually grade and methodically cut every tree to maximize the natural color and character.

~ We slowly kiln dry every plank to 6-8% moisture. This improves stability and helps reduce any chance of future movement in the board.

~ Kiln drying to 6-8% moisture kills 100% of the fungus that created the natural discoloration in the tree.

~ Every board is visually inspected and then milled into T&G flooring and paneling.

~ After milling we visually inspect every board and cut out any defects by hand.

~ Each individual flooring and paneling board is then end matched (T&G on the ends).

~ Our finished product is held to a higher standard and graded to our 99% usable tolerances.

~ If you find a higher quality beetle kill pine flooring or paneling on the market simply return and we'll refund your money.
