Fix using appropriate screws or nails for the application, and prime all faces, including end grain, before painting or finishing to slow moisture exchange and improve coating adhesion. Store flat, off the ground, and under cover to prevent warping or twisting prior to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does unsorted redwood joinery grade mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnsorted is the top joinery grade for European redwood. During grading, lower-quality pieces are removed, leaving timber with straighter grain, fewer and tighter knots, and better overall consistency. It is the grade most commonly specified for machined, visible joinery work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill 63mm x 225mm redwood plane down to a finished size?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The 63mm x 225mm measurement is the nominal sawn size. After planing to a smooth finish on all four faces, you can expect a finished size of approximately 58mm to 60mm x 219mm to 221mm, depending on the depth of cut taken. Allow for this reduction when planning your project.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs unsorted redwood suitable for external joinery?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnsorted redwood can be used externally provided it is correctly primed, painted, or treated with a suitable preservative coating.
