Metsä Wood Smooth Planed Whitewood Spruce Stick Timber - (L)2.1M (W)32mm (T)12mm

PSE timber is a machined section of timber with square edges that have been planed smooth for a consistent finish and precise dimensions.

While the timber can be used outdoors, it is recommended that you treat it with a suitable wood preservative to protect it from the elements.

Use a saw appropriate for the job, such as a hand saw, circular saw, or mitre saw. Always measure twice and cut once.

You can use a variety of finishes, including paint, stain, varnish, or oil. Always test the finish on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure compatibility and desired results.

Use wood glue along with screws, nails, or other fasteners suitable for the project. Ensure joints are properly aligned and clamped until the glue dries.

Store unused timber in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Keep it flat on a level surface to prevent warping.

Always wear safety glasses and a dust mask. Use appropriate tools and follow all safety instructions. Be aware of sharp edges and splinters.

While this timber is strong, it may not be suitable for all load-bearing applications. Consider the intended use and the required load capacity before using it in structural projects. If in doubt, consult a professional.

Pre-drill holes before inserting screws or nails to prevent splitting. Use a drill bit slightly smaller than the screw's core diameter.

Choose pieces with fewer knots or imperfections for critical applications. Use wood filler to address minor imperfections before painting or finishing.

Store timber flat on a level surface. Ensure it is not exposed to extreme changes in temperature or humidity. For installed pieces, consider using additional supports or bracing if necessary.
