    Anyone doing, or know someone doing a reno....or works as a contractor/ carpenter.

    I have 1400 linear feet of 7 1/4" traditional Poplar baseboard. all lengths in 11' long

    For those that are unaware..poplar is the highest paint grade hardwood. Can be stained (although i have never like the grain pattern of poplar for staining).

    This is custom milled trim that would cost in excess of 7/8 dollars a linear foot to have made. Selling the entire 1400 linear foot batch for 1.75 a linear foot. Coming to a grand total of $2450.00

    This are just quick pictures for the evening, as its currently sits, stickered in storage....i will post pictures tomorrow of the stock as it comes from the mill, so you may see the profile. I will also take some pictures, so you can see what it looks like after being professionally sprayed after install.

    The poplar baseboard in question is in the first picture, on the left hand side...you can kind of see the profile.

    More pictures to follow tomorrow.

    Just to clairify...

    Baseboard is 7 and 1/4" in height, and 3/4 thick

    Poplar, highest paint grade hardwood. although it can be stained.
