Lumber processing question

[jeff...]

Does anyone know what the going rate is for straight line rip one edge / S2S / trim to length / S4S? I see pricing all over the place looking at different sites on the Internet.

Thanks

Last I saw was .25 a board foot.

Wouldn't the type of wood affect the price?

Here is the prices from the hardwoodstore. It is listed at the bottom of the page.

Surfaced two sides, add $0.25/bd.ft.
Straight line ripping add $0.15/bd.ft.
Rip both edges add $0.40/bd. ft.

Wall Lumber charges $ .40 bd. ft. to S2S.

Anchor Hardwoods here in Wilmington does not charge for straight edge jointing and S2S on lumber bought from them. Everything else (llumber carried in, drum sanding, resawing,etc.), there is a per hr. shop charge.

It took a minute to realize this was not talking about actually buying wood.

And at .25 bdft, I was going to be on this like a monkey on a bannana...:drunken_s
