Timber grading seminar for sawmillers. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ridley-Ellis, D. (2013, March). Timber grading seminar for sawmillers

This grading seminar will give you a crash course in timber grading, what it is, how it is done and how it is likely to change in future. It aims to demystify timber grading, tackle some widely held misconceptions, and tell you the things sawmillers... Read More about Timber grading seminar for sawmillers..
