Frequent Questions

While not mandatory, staining and sealing your cedar project offers several benefits, including enhanced UV protection, reduced moisture absorption, and improved weather resistance. Staining can also add a decorative touch and help the cedar retain its natural beauty for longer.

Stains penetrate the wood fibers, adding color and some level of protection. Sealers create a protective barrier on the wood’s surface, repelling moisture and UV rays. Some products, like TimberPro’s Log & Siding Formula, combine staining and sealing properties in one application.

The longevity of the stain depends on factors like weather exposure, chosen stain quality, and proper maintenance. Generally, high-quality stains on well-maintained cedar can last several years before requiring reapplication.

Yes, once fully cured, TimberPro Log & Siding Formula is considered safe for people and pets. Always refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations for proper application and curing times.

Experience the Beauty and Strength

At Mountain Milling Company, we offer a stunning selection of kiln-dried hardwoods perfect for a variety of woodworking projects. But what exactly are kiln-dried hardwoods, and why are they the preferred choice for professional woodworkers and hobbyists alike?

Our Selection of Kiln-Dried Hardwoods

We are proud to offer a variety of kiln-dried hardwoods to suit your project needs and skill level:

Walnut:

This rich, dark wood is prized for its luxurious appearance and exceptional workability. Perfect for furniture making, cabinetry, and decorative elements. (Available in planed and rough cut)

Red Oak:

A classic American hardwood, red oak is known for its strength, stability, and beautiful grain pattern. This versatile wood is a popular choice for furniture, flooring, doors, and other structural applications.

Alder:

Known for its fine grain and light color, alder is a versatile hardwood ideal for staining and painting. Perfect for furniture building, cabinetry, and trim work.

Cherry: Warm and inviting, cherry offers a beautiful reddish-brown hue that matures over time. A popular choice for furniture, cabinets, and interior millwork.

Understanding Kiln-Dried Hardwoods

Kiln-dried hardwoods undergo a controlled drying process within large ovens called kilns. This method removes excess moisture from the wood much faster and more uniformly than air-drying. The result? Kiln-dried hardwoods offer numerous advantages over their air-dried counterparts:

  • Reduced Warping and Cracking: Excess moisture in wood can cause warping, cracking, and splitting as it dries. Kiln-drying minimizes this risk, ensuring your wood remains stable and dimensionally accurate.

  • Enhanced Strength and Durability: Properly kiln-dried wood is stronger and more durable, making it ideal for furniture, cabinetry, flooring, and other demanding applications.

  • Improved Workability: Kiln-dried wood is easier to plane, sand, and glue, resulting in a smoother finish and a more enjoyable woodworking experience.

  • Reduced Risk of Insect Infestation: The drying process eliminates moisture that attracts insects, minimizing the risk of infestation in your finished project.
Find the Perfect Hardwood for Your Project

Whether you’re a seasoned woodworker or just starting out, our selection of kiln-dried hardwoods provides the quality and consistency you need to achieve stunning results. Visit our showroom or browse our online selection to find the perfect hardwood for your next project.

Frequent Questions

Planed lumber has already been surfaced by a planer, resulting in a smooth and consistent thickness. Rough cut lumber is delivered straight from the mill with its original, uneven saw marks. Planed lumber is easier to work with for beginners, while rough cut lumber offers more flexibility for shaping at the expense of requiring additional work.

Kiln-dried hardwoods are ideal for a wide range of projects due to their stability and strength. Common uses include furniture making, cabinetry, flooring, doors, trim work, musical instruments, and decorative elements.

While the initial cost of kiln-dried hardwood might be slightly higher, it offers several advantages that translate to long-term savings. The reduced risk of warping, cracking, and waste due to moisture content makes kiln-dried lumber a more reliable choice.

Red Oak is a popular choice for its affordability, strength, and beautiful grain pattern. It’s a versatile wood that can be stained or finished to achieve various design aesthetics.

Walnut is prized for its rich, dark color and exceptional workability. It’s ideal for high-end furniture pieces, cabinetry, and decorative elements where a luxurious look is desired.

Absolutely! Alder’s fine grain and light color make it a perfect canvas for paint or stain. This allows you to customize the wood to perfectly match your project’s design.
