White Pine Board N Batton

A solution has been found! We now have added a great new mill that
produces 1 x 10 kiln dried board and batten siding with pre-cut battens.
Typical width of battens is 2-1/4″ but custom widths are available upon
request. this siding is available in Eastern White Pine wit a smooth finish on one side and a very attractive striated texture (above-stained) on the other that simulates an “weathered antique” appearance. See unfinished sample below left.

We are constantly being asked to quote and provide board and batten siding and interior paneling for custom residential projects. Most of our mills that provide us with 1x siding material do not kiln dry any material less than 1 x 4 and do not want to re-saw boards to battens. Re-sawing wider boards will almost always results in many “wavy” battens so typically we have had to ask ask our customers to accept wider boards for battens to be re-sawn on site and installed immediately.
