Best Answer

There are a couple things that "graders" look for in a piece of lumber. One is the knot holes, if they are large this effects the grade. The other is bark no one wants a board that is all bark. So when you are looking for a strong piece of lumber you want one that has knot holes smaller than a half dollar coin and not all barked up the only bad effect that the bark has is it makes it hard to nail to.
