It takes us about 3 business days to create your samples.

We've designed our samples to give you as accurate a depiction of the finished product as possible. We create each sample to order so that they showcase our current wood stock. As wood is a natural product, some variation in grain pattern or coloration is likely.

Yes, all our wood species are available as unfinished samples that will come sanded, if you'd prefer to add a different finish for your project.

While all of our woods work for exterior applications, we prefer wood species with higher overall durability for exterior purposes. Our favorites for exterior doors? Black Walnut and Knotty Black Walnut, Sapele Mahogany, White Oak (any variant), and Western Red Cedar. Any of our wood species work for interior projects, with the exception of Wenge, which we do not use for countertops.

Wood samples for trade program members cost $5 per sample with free shipping--regardless of quantity.
