    Your question is vague.!>

    If the City/Town,purpose and quantity needed is indicated, then we can suggest anything.

    Generally, in India, you cannnot get "Treated and Sesoned" Timber directly from any shop.Timber application without seasoning and without Treatment aginst termites etc., is not wise.In countries like US and Europe, unseasoned and untreated timber is banned for sale.

    Generally, the cut/sized timber will need atleast 6months to one year to self -sesoning.

    Teak,Rosewood and Padauk wood alone have naturally quick self seasoning ability.

    If your are in a hurry, then arrange to buy wood, which is already cut and stored for ready sale.

    If timber seasoning plants are available in your city/town of purchase, then get them artificially seasoned.max duration is less than a month only.

    Wish you all the best.

    We cut down a tree. Literally. We had 3 really bad ones that were dying when we moved to this house. Cut em' down and have been using them as firewood for years. You buy them from a lumberyard - birch burns best, although you can't go wrong with oak or pine either :)
