    Red Oak Lumber for Sale

    Wood Vendors supplies only the finest Red Oak Lumber from the northern and Appalachian regions of the U.S.  As a general rule the farther north (or higher the elevation) the red oak tree grows the more consistent the color of the lumber produced.  Red oak hardwood contains many sub-species under the general heading of red oak making it the most abundant hardwood species harvested in the U.S.  It is readily available as plain sawn or as rift and quartered lumber.  It is fairly slow drying, making thicker lumber such as 12/4 and 16/4 more difficult to find.   Wood Vendors sells random width, rough lumber as well as width sorted,  s2s, s4s Red Oak Dimension and Mouldings in plain sawn, rift and quartered cuts.
