The framing of a lot of homes today is still done with fur a type of pine! Why would you say that we don’t frame with pine anymore? We don’t build schools with pine so much anymore but it is still used.🧐

A bit of information on lumber 2 by 4s and most other wood sold for framing is as a rule, pine, most doors that are solid wood are oak or pine.

I can't imagine children running out of a 1st floor room into the crowded hallway when all they had to do was climb out a huge window.
