"Dave and his crew did an awesome job building some wainscoting and trim over my fireplace. He designed it so it complemented and carried through the shape of the built in shelving on either side. It was all his design. It turned out better than I ever could have hoped for. Highly recommend."

"I have worked with JD Woodworking for 13 years. They have I fort hired them to install cabinets. I was so impressed with their work and professionalism that I hired them in my next house for a custom office, home theatre and bar. Each of these projects were custom built from the cabinets to the coffered ceilings. I have recommended them to several friends and I would recommend them again without hesitation."

"We are highly satisfied with the work we had completed. Insulation, drywall, framing repair, beam and post work, and painting. The basement looks great and we would definitely use them again in the future. Communication is great, pricing is fair, and there is a lot of care put into the work that they do."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

You don’t need a cutting board. In fact, cutting is the original purpose of butcher block countertops. That said, wood is porous and can harbor germs. You’ll need to clean your countertop thoroughly after use. Knives can also scratch the surface. This adds to the patina of the wood, but not everyone likes the look—in which case, you may want to use a cutting board.

Most landscape timbers are 8 feet long, but some are also available in 10-foot and 12-foot lengths. Choose the length that will allow you to install landscape timbers using the least amount of cutting to fit. Shorter timbers will allow you to more easily create angles and shorter plant bed sides.

The boards between floor joists are called bridging or blocking boards. These are the shortest pieces of wood in the flooring system—with beams being the longest and joists sitting somewhere in the middle—and they serve to reinforce the joists and help provide even support to the flooring above. Bridging specifically helps cut down on uneven and creaking floors in your living area.

Whether or not it’s easier to cut wood when it’s wet versus dry depends largely on the type of tool you use and the wood you’re cutting. For example, a chain saw should still be able to cut through wet wood with relative ease, but it may be more difficult to maneuver due to the wood fibers sticking to the chains of the saw. 

However, you might want to avoid cutting wood entirely when it’s wet if you’re pruning your tree. Sawing a wet tree that you don’t plan on removing can also encourage bacterial and fungal growth and decay.
