White Oak pricing

[Runk]

What should one expect to pay for 8/4 white oak that is plane sawn and said to be graded 2 and better that has been kiln dried?

Check out Scott Smith's site to get a feel for pricing.

I have some really nice white oak 8/4 that I need to move It has air dried for a year I would take 1.50/bd foot

After a year of air drying would it be OK to use for outdoor furniture? I would not have space to store 8/4 for another year (one year per inch I have always heard) but would be interested if Runk is not

I will not be interested as it is too far from where I live. I am on the south east coast. Thanks. Runk.

Your still more than likely going to see a good amount of shrinkage and any resawing would probably produce some cupping. If it is not "Fine" outdoor furniture then maybe.
