I have been coming up empty handed trying to find a good way to price the wood I have. I recently rescued some old pine joists from a renovation at the building I work at. I would like to eventually make some telecaster bodies out of them. I have a guitar maker interested in buying some. I just don't know what to charge. The building is a Carnegie brick building built in 1907 on an re-purposed college campus. The pine has a nice tight grain. I have 4 pieces for him. (2 halves ea. for two guitars). So far, I have planed and cut the wood. They are different sizes but have the same thickness |

you might check with Pioneer Millworks in Farmington. They specialize in timbers pulled from 19th mill buildings and such and you should be able to get a good idea what your pine would be worth |

I always thought of them as big timber guys. I forgot about the millworks department. Thanks |
