Douglas Fir, known scientifically as Pseudotsuga menziesii, originates from North America. The heartwood is light reddish-brown in color, distinct from the lighter-colored sapwood.”
The abrupt change and contrast in colour between early-wood and late-wood bands produce a prominent growth ring figure, a feature of plain-sawn surfaces and rotary-cut veneer. Douglas Fir is a timber of good strength and durability. Our stock is No.2 Clear Grade, which works well in both internal and external joinery applications. It can also be available in Merchant Stock, dimension stock, vertical grain, mast stock, etc.
Good – Douglas Fir works well with standard woodworking tools and techniques, producing a smooth finish.
