What is the difference between rough and dressed lumber?

Re sawn lumber is achieved by re-processing smooth standard milled lumber to achieve a roughened surface, normally for aesthetics. The lumber is passed along a saw blade to achieve the desired effect. The finished size is smaller than nominal call-out dimension. Rough sawn lumber is the board, plank or timber prior to milling for final sizing. Rough sawn lumber is larger in dimensions to the nominal call out. Rough sawn lumber is sometimes referred as rough milled lumber when certain exact sizes are desired.

I'm not sure what you mean by raw wood. Green wood that hasn't been dried out? Or fresh timber that has not been sawn into lumber? Or just lumber that has not been reclaimed from other completed items? You can purchase ebony lumber from many wood supply sources. It is heavy, hard and expensive, it only grows in Western Africa.

What does analyze mean in woodworking?

It could mean several things for various aspects in woodworking, in cabinet making you have to analyze how to layout the many panels on your substrate so you leave the least amount of scrap-wood, (the leftover, unusable wood from the sheet of substrate). In wood turning, you have to analyze how you want the grain, knots, crotches, the includsions of faults, etc., in essence, choose how you want to your end piece to look. In the milling of lumber, you have to analyze (deside) how you want the lumber to look once its cut, (desiding how to cut gives you different grain patterns you seek) typical cuts in the milling of lumber are: Flitch Cut, Quarter- and Rift- Sawn, Plain-Sawn. Explanation on typical cuts: Plain or Flat sawn gives you a swirled grain affect, more prone to movement with changes in humidity, accepts stains well. Rift sawn has a strighter grain and much more stable than Plain sawn, Quarter sawn is the most stable of all cuts, the strightest grain, and in some species will show ray flect, (the exhibition of the Medullary cell) Quartersawing is the most wasteful way to cut a log, but the beauty and stability of this cut always offsets the waste. Analyzing is determining the nature of the whole, or deciding what the end result will be.
