Ash Uses

Ash is one of the most sought after species right now in the USA. Ash has a variety of uses including furniture, flooring, doors, architectural millwork, boxes, molding, cabinetry, paneling, hockey sticks, skis, oars, turnings, crates, baseball bats, and tool handles. Our Ash lumber is sourced from the Southern region of the USA. Ash is straight grained and has a light brown heartwood and beige sapwood. This species maintains a high degree of workability especially with hand or machine tools and responds well to steam bending.
