Reply #61: It's the warping, man -the warping! [View All]

How can Home Depot find 3/4" sheathing that, over a 4X8 span, can not only warp, but cup and twist - all at once!

Hell, it's not even real wood- just a bunch of layers glued together.

At least here in VA, the quality of wood at HD is so bad that I won't even go in there. I mill any stock I need from rough lumber, and I'll get birch ply from a hardwood dealer.

Seriosly, is any effort being made to improve quality?

Side note: thanks for the "insight" into the HD policies, BTW. I have been avoiding it for many months now due to its "red' status, but am glad to hear another side of the story.
