Case Woodworking Supply stocks an impressive range of domestic hardwoods including red oak, white oak, hard maple, soft maple, cherry, walnut, ash, hickory, and poplar. Each species is available in multiple grades and thicknesses, from 4/4 (1 inch) through 8/4 (2 inches) and beyond for specialty applications.

Exotic hardwood selection includes mahogany, teak, ipe, purpleheart, padauk, bubinga, and wenge, sourced responsibly and stored properly to maintain stability. All lumber is graded according to National Hardwood Lumber Association standards, with FAS grade offering the highest yield of clear material, Select grade providing excellent quality with minor character, and #1 Common delivering value for painted or rustic projects.
