Products & Materials

Linn Lumber Inc specializes in custom-sawn lumber across a wide range of Pacific Northwest species, with Douglas fir and cedar forming the backbone of our inventory due to their exceptional strength and workability. Our dimensional lumber ranges from standard construction grades to premium select and clear grades for fine woodworking, available in sizes from 1×4 up to massive 12×12 timbers and beyond.

Live-edge slabs represent a specialty focus, with carefully selected logs sawn to showcase natural edge characteristics perfect for dining tables, countertops, and artistic applications. These slabs undergo controlled drying to minimize checking and warping while preserving the dramatic grain patterns that make each piece unique.

Beyond standard lumber, we produce custom fence posts, barn beams, hewn timbers for timber frame construction, and specialty millwork including tongue-and-groove paneling and custom profiles. Our kiln-drying services ensure interior-grade lumber meets precise moisture content requirements, while our green lumber options serve customers needing immediate availability for outdoor projects and construction applications.
