Afternoon all!
Having stripped the paint from my old sash windows I'm going to have to replace the wood on the bottom of the sliding part - The frames and cills aren't in too bad a condition and can be repaired.
Now I know "wood isn't what is used to be" (tm) what with fast grown, kiln dried stuff being the norm - what sort of good quality softwood should I use and what's the magic term to describe it when I go down the timber yard so as not to look totally clueless.
My Father used to buy old oak tables as a source of good quality wood
- these days that's an expensive route to go.
TIA,
