The World's Finest 1 inch Spruce and Lodgepole Boards.

Edge - Feel the difference
“Gorman Bros.' signature edges are smooth and splinter-resistant. As a result, there is no need for sanding, they're easy to stack, and they look great.”

Grades
Grades of wood include Clear Select, D & better clear, #2 & Btr , #3 Com, and #4 Com. Clear select is the highest grade.

The size, quantity and quality of different traits found in each board determines the grade.

Smaller and fewer natural traits are allowed in the higher grades. There will never be a maximum of all traits allowed in one board.
