re: Milling Lumber

I thought pine had to be dried at a higher temp to set the sap, and even then it's going to come out over time. I have an older house and used a lot of whiteboard pine for the interior and trim to keep it looking old/country, and over the years knots will still bleed a bit and that's with a factory drying process.

On the other hand that's not structural and if you want the rustic look do you care if the knots bleed? I milled a bunch of live oak after Hurricane Michael and it wasn't cost effective at all but a few of those trees were 150 years old and it made me sick to lose them, so I get the desire to use your own wood.

ETA read too fast and missed that you were only talking about framing. Don't see why the sap would matter there.
