99% of People Don't Know This Woodworking Term! (Lumber Terminology)

Can you name all the parts of a simple wooden board? Most people think they can...but quickly overlook some things!

There are 26 distinct surfaces on a rectangular wooden board.

It's really important to learn what to accurately call the parts of a wooden board so you can communicate your intentions quickly to other tradespeople. (I've seen newcomers constantly struggle with this.)

The flat, wider surfaces on a rectangular board are called FACES.

The flat, longer narrow surfaces are called EDGES.

The flat, shorter narrow surfaces are called ENDS.

But, the sharp intersections of two flat parts are called ARRISES.

You find arrises in all sorts of architecture. They can even be curved, like in arches.

The sharp intersections of 3 flat parts are simply called CORNERS.

But, don't confuse the edge of the board with the actual arris. And don't confuse the arris with a corner!

Keep your woodworking board terminology clean, and you'll always be able to communicate what you intend to do with a board to other tradespeople.

Thanks!
