Not used a lot anymore Rob. Its heavy and hard so not used for conventional framing. Its fairly rot resistant, works great for decking on trailers and trucks. At one time it was used for floors in barns, guess with a bit of urine it never rotted. Great for timber framing.
Nice stuff to saw, there's virtually no gum when your handling it.
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.

The final product.
He wanted the beams 6 x 11 17 1/2 feet long for a structural beam in a house. Not sure what the rest was for.

with the damage to the brass inner parts of the nozzle in the burner that I use in my furnace I decided to replace all the major stuff like the Screw Pin (their name not mine)
Of which I made a couple like the one in the above photo, but it wouldn't work with the way I wanted to change the plumbing setup. So I made another one only longer.
By making it longer I was able to make more room for the air passage, plus didn't have to drill four tiny holes thru the Adapter Body to get the air where it needed to go.
In the photo of the nozzle assembled and ready to fir you can see the new Adapter Body that I made which has the oil plumbed into the back of the body and the air in the side. This configuration makes it a lot simpler for a guy in the garage to make one for his self.
its not much but its what me and the monster did today when we wasn't sitting under the AC.
