Plywood
Our plywood inventory supports builders and cabinetry makers with dependable stock, clean faces, and flexible core options. Standard panels, custom layups, and specialty sheet goods—sourced to meet the demands of construction and production environments.
Plywood & Sheet Goods
At Mason’s Mill & Lumber, plywood isn’t an afterthought — it’s a working material. We stock and source sheet goods that builders and cabinetry makers rely on every day, with the consistency, face quality, and core options required for real jobsite and shop conditions.
From domestic NAUF and ULEF panels to specialty outdoor and moisture-resistant options, our inventory is built to support production schedules, not slow them down.
Custom Layups& Specialty Sheet Goods
For projects that need more than an off-the-rack panel, we offer custom plywood solutions through our sourcing and manufacturing partners.
Custom capabilities include:
Custom veneer layups
Different faces on each side (species-to-species or veneer to melamine)
Pre-finished custom panels
Cut-to-size options (within project scope)
- UV finishing
These solutions are typically handled job-by-job, allowing builders and cabinet shops to dial in exactly what the project requires — without over-ordering or unnecessary compromises.
If your project needs something specific, our team can help spec the panel before it ever shows up onsite.

Vertical Grain Pine — Cutek Extreme Clear Finish
Vertical Grain (VG) Pine is a premium cut of pine milled specifically so that the growth rings run perpendicular to the face of the board — typically at 60° to 90° to the surface. This "quartersawn" or "rift-sawn" orientation produces a board with a tight, straight, pinstripe-like grain pattern that is dramatically more stable and refined than standard flat-sawn (plain-sawn) pine. Because the growth rings are oriented vertically, VG boards resist the cupping, twisting, and cathedral-pattern grain shifts that flat-sawn lumber is prone to, and they wear more evenly over time — which is why vertical grain has been the traditional choice for high-end architectural applications like porch flooring, exterior siding, boat decks, and fine millwork.
The visual character of VG Pine is one of its biggest selling points: consistent, linear grain lines with minimal figure or knots, producing a clean, understated appearance that reads as more formal and architectural than character-grade pine. This makes it particularly well-suited to applications where the wood is a design feature rather than a background material — traditional porch ceilings, Craftsman and coastal-style siding, wainscoting, and interior paneling.
Each board is finished with Cutek Extreme Clear, a penetrating oil engineered to stabilize exterior wood from the inside out. Rather than forming a surface film like paint or varnish, Cutek carries its oils deep into the wood fibers, where they work continuously to slow moisture movement — the primary driver of cupping, checking, and end-splitting. This is especially valuable for pine, which is more naturally susceptible to moisture-related movement than denser hardwoods; Cutek's stabilizing action significantly extends the board's dimensional life outdoors. Because the finish penetrates rather than coats, it cannot peel or flake, and maintenance requires no sanding or stripping — just clean the surface and reapply when it looks dry. The clear formulation adds no pigment, allowing the natural honey-gold tone of the pine to show through initially before gradually silvering to a soft gray patina if left unmaintained with a colortone.
Ideal for porch ceilings, tongue-and-groove soffits, traditional lap or shiplap siding, wainscoting, interior paneling, and any application where a refined, straight-grained wood aesthetic is desired.
