    CLS is straight and true , also very reasonable
    Comes smooth so no nasty splinters

    Nice stuff to work with

    Building a stud wall , is my very favourite DIY project .
    Its inside , warm and dry
    Not difficult
    Play with big pieces of wood
    Not a lot of mess

    Ok so humour me..why CLS..what justifies the extra cost for this job? I don't actually know so i'm interested in the arguments for it - especially as i'm considering building a small stud wall for the end of a wardrobe.

    Wow, it got like a screwfix forum on here for a minute, lol.

    As wallbash says its the accuracy of the wood.
    Some people don't exaggerate........... They just remember big!
