How is timber different from other wood?

Timber is just another name for wood, In practice wood in its rough form is usually refered to as timber, tree trunks unprocessed are probably timber in it's purest form. In a house unfinished wood ( generally found in the roof and beneath the floor) is referred to as timber e.g. roof timbers or floor timbers/joists. Timber which has been planed (smoothed) and finished off e.g. skirting boards and window sills are referred to as 'joinery' grade or finished, they are still however timber and the difference is a discriptive reference rather than a physical difference.

What is solid timber made from?

I’ve worked with wood a bit for DIY projects, so I can explain this in simple terms. Solid timber is basically wood that’s cut straight from the tree and used in its natural form, without being engineered or glued together like plywood or MDF. So if you’ve got a table or flooring made from solid timber, it means it’s cut from one piece of real wood. What I like about it is that it feels stronger, lasts longer, and you can sand or refinish it multiple times. Of course, it can be a bit more expensive, but the durability and natural look are worth it. When I was sourcing materials, I checked out a few timber wholesalers Sydney offers, and they had a great range of solid timber options in different species like oak, pine, and spotted gum. That’s when I realised how much variety there actually is depending on the type of tree it comes from.
