Pro Tips

• Flatstock is the DIY trim builder's best friend. Combine a wide flatstock header with casing legs to create a Craftsman-style door surround without buying specialty moulding.
• Confirm species and follow appropriate finishing guidelines. Ask your local Windsor Plywood team for species-specific advice.
• For custom mantel and built-in applications, rip flatstock to the exact width needed on a table saw. The square edges allow precise custom sizing.
