Use them. Never had a problem buying from them and they let me pick thru for what I wanted.

On a side note. Framing lumber these days suck big time. Mills will NOT saw up any trees bigger then 20" anymore. In fact they look for logs that are in the 12" to 16" size. Big reason one sees so many knots.

I had to go buy some studs at HD. I went thru a easy 100+ to pick out 20. For me, I would of rejected about half of them if I sawed them up on my sawmill. By the way, I did have a stack of 2x4's, but they were still to green to use.

This log was close to 32".



Not a single knot in the bunch.
