Sad, but true.


That's your experience. Mine has been completely the opposite. Guess we'll just have to agree to differ. The last time I bought timber from B & Q even the chap who was going to cut it to length couldn't find a straight piece.

Totally agree about B & Q. As far as either planed or rough pine I have never had a straight piece from them and generally has been totally useless for anything other than firewood.

And their plywood has not been much better.

Maybe it depends on the location and maybe some B & Q stores have a better supplier.

But also I have no experience of well known chain builders merchants I tend to buy from our local builders merchant (owned by local family) and they have excellent quality wood of all kinds. And it is no more expensive than B & Q and don't charge for cutting.
I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it.
