While the business is done, the owner is selling off his entire collection of personal inventory. This is an inventory that has been accumulated for nearly 20 years! I’m talking about an estimated quarter of $1 million worth of inventory at the guaranteed lowest prices! I will match or beat any advertised local price on comparable material! All of these slabs have been vacuum kiln, dried and sterilized to 160°, exceeding USDA requirements for export. There will be absolutely no shipping on any slabs, this is a local sale only. These materials are in storage in a warehouse in Palmerton, Pennsylvania. Visits are by appointment only. If you are within reasonable driving distance, it will be worth the road trip! Price list and further details can be seen on our Instagram under PACUSTOMSLABSANDLUMBER, and also on Facebook under A & E Keenly’s Handywork. 99% of our material is 10/4, or 2 1/2 inches thick. Maximum length is 12’6”. All material is domestic and has been harvested from within 50 miles of here. I welcome partial or complete buyouts from other businesses!I welcome partial or complete buyouts from other businesses!
All material has been dried in a state of the art vacuum kiln. Enjoy the benefits of brighter, truer colors with less defect and degrade. Every cycle also includes the benefits of material conditioning as well as a sterilization cycle that exceeds USDA requirements. There are no fears of bugs, eggs, future cracking, twisting, etc. as commonly associated with air dried or otherwise improperly handled materials. Our materials go directly from the kiln to the warehouse...never outside!
All logs are acquired from local and regional loggers working forester governed selective harvests, tree services, and property owners. Some of these logs are reclaimed and salvaged from becoming firewood, or worse yet, landfill! No tree is ever cut down just for the sake of processing slabs from it.
About 3/4 of our logs were acquired from local tree services. They were trees that were coming down regardless. In most cases, it's because they became a safety concern for a private property owner. In other words, we rescue urban timber! With sawing so much urban timber, we certainly run all different types of metal and other object in wood. You will see some of it here, in our wood slabs.
The remaining 1/4 of our logs that come in from loggers are cut down typically for forest thinning or improvement, or due to negative impacts of insects or disease. Responsibly using renewable and sustainable resources helps ensure that Mother Nature's wonders will be here for future generations to enjoy!
