    Default quick question when ordering pine framing

    Hello, I plan on ordering some 90x45 framing for my shed,

    I have seen in bunnings 2 different types of finishes, the type with very small grooves down each side of the wood and the type thats smooth,
    do these 2 finishes have certain names? they still both have slighty rounded corners so i dont think they are dar? how would i know what type im getting if i place an order through?

    thanks for any help.

    The grooves are referred to as rougher headed. Originally this was for treated products as I understand it for painting purposes as it didn't show fine surface checking. At bunnings it seems that Mgp 10 comes in both depending on which supplier it came from and I would be surprised if you could specify one or the other. Treated graded pine is generally rougher headed.

    As above. Bunnings give you no option, it is whatever they receive into stock. My suggestion is get it all in one delivery and you will have all the same. I can post a pic of my garage shelving which is half/half not by design but by doing the job over three weekends.
    cheers
    P.S. I don't even notice the difference when I walk past it is hidden by all the "stuff"
