OK, let me change the original question. What wood is used in our homes constructions? Did we get this wood locally, or we imported it form China, Oregon or Canada? If you know, what kind wood is it? Is it soft wood or hard wood?
Thank you.

Our construction wood is harvested mostly from the pacific northwest and southwest Canada. Housing is constructed of softwoods(conifers). Hardwood used in home construction is usually only for cabinetry, flooring or millwork(trim).

Store? Home Depot, Lowes or a local lumber yard.
In general? Northern California, Oregon, Washington and some from B.C. Canada.

Go old school and chop the wood at the Local Forest Perserve. It is alot of work, but will save you money.

you should be able to get it locally. most of the places we work on is pin or oak, but oak is very hard.
