Can anyone tell me where I can get 3x8 or 3x10 wood for new bunks? My bunks stand on edge. I live in the Philadelphia area. Thanks.

Never heard of 3x`s. Cant you just put (2) 2x`s together? I would glue and screw them together.

Trying to leave that step out. I have seen 3x's. Just trying to find out where to get it. Thanks.

I special ordered it from a local lumberyard in VA when I needed odd sized pieces a few years ago.

If you can find 2- 2x's that are glue-laminated together, that would be even better than a solid piece.

Not being a smarta$$, but why would 2 boards glued together be better then a solid board?

Diamond M lumber in Mt Holly they are the Fazzio of wood.

Depends on the stress of the load. I'm not just talking about a little Elmer's Wood Glue sticking them together either.

I'm talking about two boards that are soaked in glue and and are pressed and baked together as part of a manufacturing process.

I would have never thought it either, but I was shown the breaking strength numbers when I was building my pole barn a few years ago. My "6x6"s are actually 3 - 2x6s that are glue-laminated together. They are stronger, more solid (dense), heavier, and more resistant to warping than a solid 6x6.

They're Cypress bunks. Try to find a local trailer dealer/manufacturer and sweet talk him into selling you a set of replacements. He might tell you where you can order them. If he's a dealer, he might be able to get his builder to throw an extra set on the next trailer delivery. Not sure how many deliveries you'll get up there this time of year though. And if you're really lucky, you can get them already carpeted.

Any Lumber mill will have your sizes or try a Timber Frame house builder. These are normal sizes.

try a lumber mill, Myco uses (or used 4 yrs ago) kiln dried spruce. which the first local mill i called had
