Hello,
I asked my local timber merchant to plane down a few lengths of 5x1 to replace some floorboards. I didn't have a close look at the time but they seemed ok when I bought them. I've come to fit them and I see there are some cracks along the surface. It's hard to tell how deep they go; they certainly don't go all the way through the wood. What has caused these?
Have I stored them at the wrong temperature or wrong humidity? They have been kept cold but dry. Will they be safe to use as floorboards? I don't want them breaking beneath my feet!
Thanks.
