Imagine the richness that natural hardwood paneling would bring to your home.

Get creative with alternating sizes, and mixing species - Imagine the possibilities!
Build Green with Naturally Renewable Wood Sidings Wood is the Natural Choice when it comes to beautiful and effective cladding for your home or structure. Wood surpasses steel and concrete in the following categories: * Energy use * Environment impact * Resource use * Green Building * Pollution Energy Use - Wood products require much less energy to produce than concrete or steel. An independent comparison of the energy needed to obtain, manufacture, transport and install building materials for identical wood frame, steel frame and concrete houses proves wood's environmental superiority over alternative materials. The result is more fossil fuels saved with less air and water pollution. Resource Use - As the world's only renewable building material, wood can not only be recycled, but regenerated as well. Pollution - Wood product manufacturing produces far fewer greenhouse gases. Environmental Impact - Wood has the lowest impact on air and water quality. This is especially true when compared to the manufacture of recycled steel. Forest regeneration also creates more trees which benefit the environment while they grow, taking in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. Green Building - As the interest in "Green Building" grows, building rating systems such as Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) have emerged as one way to rate the environmental impact of construction. These rating systems are founded on the four guiding principles of green building:
1. 2. 3. 4.
Reducing energy use Reducing resource use Minimizing pollution Reducing environmental impact

It looks custom made... because it is. Using only the tools of a frontiersman and techniques that have been passed down through generations, we have created the TRAPPER’S LODGE Hand Crafted Rustic Hewn line of timber siding & trim. We start with mighty White Pine, harvested from the forests of the Lake Superior region. Sourced locally, we then utilize local craftsmen and a variety of draw knives to create a one-of-a kind textured finish. Each board bears the unique scars from the knives that when finished create dark contrasting crevasses.
22
The TRAPPER’S LODGE siding installs easily over conventional framing and is available in sizes 2x8 - 2x12. Coordinating window & door trim also features the same rustic sculpturing and are available in a large range of sizes and outside corner options. To further enhance and protect the siding and trim, we offer the VX Pro Factory Prefinishing Service - full protection for your natural wood exterior, available in a variety of attractive shades.

2x10 Original Trapper’s Lodge Custom Color Matched with the Lake States Lumber Factory Prefinishing Service
The TRAPPER’S LODGE line is custom made by hand using a series of draw knives. We have created two descriptions to identify the intensity of the marks and gouges that are applied to the wood. Cozy Cottage utilizes more of a “scraping” technique that limits the depth and the volume of the marks, it appears to have more knife chatter and an eased knife edges. The Original Trapper’s Lodge bites harder into the wood leaving deeper gouges and tears, a more “pioneer” look, it also includes an eased knife edge. Whether you go light with Cozy Cottage or heavy with the Original Trapper’s Lodge, you are assured to have a “One-of-a-Kind” look for your home. Our Minnesota craftsmen make a variety of sidings, trims and corners - let us make something special just for you!

Texture affects the stain color. Stain collects in the grooves and markings to create dark accents. Each of the products above feature the VX Pro Factory Finish: Moosewood Throughout the magazine, we strive to make the colors appear as accurate as possible. It is important to note that finish color variations can occur not only due to the natural hues and grain patterns of the wood substrate that it is applied to, but also due to the machining of the wood. Lake States Lumber offers a variety of texture options that can be applied to sidings, trim, timbers and panelings. When finishing, stain collects in the grooves and markings creating dark accents, which helps to highlight the Lake States Lumber, Inc. | www.lakestateslumber.com

I have used VX Pro on more than one thousand projects with outstanding results. Smooth log siding jobs coated with VX Pro still look new after seven years of exposure to the elements. The finish is very flexible and that helps it hold up to expansion and contraction without cracking and peeling from the stress.
We continue to commission university laboratory testing of the VX Pro Line of Finishes. Through independent research, VX Pro continues to outperform the competition and to provide superior protection and color retention.
Tim Ryan Ryan Paint Contracting
3 Coat System - The base coat seals the wood to protect it from harmful UV rays and damage from moisture. The base coat not only promotes dimensional stability, it also provides an excellent surface for top coat applications. We then apply two layers of the top coat to fortify the UV resistance and to obtain the final desired color. Pseudo- Elastic Properties - Our layers of protection expand and contract naturally with the wood to prevent any cracking, peeling and flaking of the finish. No chalking or fading - Unlike other finishes, our product protects from UV damage preventing the onset of a degraded finish. Environmentally Complimentary & Safe - The unique waterborne nature of the VX Pro System permits easy clean up with water while the finish is still wet. Our ZERO HAP (Hazardous Air Pollutants) CONTENT makes the VX Pro System the choice for safety and the environment and gives you the flexibility to distribute and store the product without hazardous material restrictions. Proven Performance - VX Pro has undergone both extensive laboratory and field application testing. Independent Lab Testing recognizes the VX Pro Factory Finish System as having the BEST WEATHERING CHARACTERISTICS of any finish in its class!

Clean Clear Finishes Don’t Come Easy! It is more than what is being applied to the wood. Lake States Lumber controls the process from start to finish. We take care to insure the wood is at proper temperature and moisture content before the process begins. Then our first step is to sand the paneling, removing mill glaze and any imperfections. We then apply three coats of our ultra clear UV finish, carefully sanding between each coat. The finish is applied to both the front and back of the paneling to limit the exposure to moisture and minimize the expansion and contraction of the wood. The paneling is visually inspected three times through the process to insure quality throughout the process. Lake States Lumber also offers our Advantage Plus Line of Pre-Stained Panelings. A great selection of colors to choose from along with custom capabilities.

Thermally Modified Wood
evolutions Sustainable ö Local ö Durable ö Beautiful
Naturally modified wood with supernatural performance. The Science behind the Product: Thermal Modification changes the chemical structure of the wood. The process changes both the physical and biological properties of wood, hindering its ability to reabsorb moisture. Additionally, through the transformation process, the sugars found in wood are converted into a natural substance that cannot be digested by insects, and that does not contribute to fungus or mold growth.
The results of the modification give EVOLUTIONS Thermally Modified Wood significant advantages against the elements: • Outstanding Dimension Stability - Greatly reducing woods natural tendency to warp, cup and shrink • Durability - Excellent performance against the elements • Natural resistance to rot and decay • Exceptional performance with paints / stains / glues due to the low moisture content - Can be painted / stained immediately • Attractive golden brown color with Pine and Dark tones with hardwood species The enhanced durability and performance make EVOLUTIONS an excellent choice for the eco-conscience consumer, but the advantages don’t stop there...

Doug Fir Flooring End-Matched & Factory Prefinished Our 1x8 flooring is individually selected for character and personality. Every piece is hand graded for unique characteristics that we feel tell the story of the Old West. With sustainability in mind, only standing dead, fire and beetle killed wood is used. We then start with a whole log and then carefully cut planks. This method produces a higher quality and incredibly unique floor. Wood grain patterns appear to dance and wave as they move from vertical to flat grain. Most flooring manufacturers use a lower grade lumber and then try to cut and high grade for flooring. We do the opposite and cut the whole log into flooring leaving the amazing character in every piece. Each piece is then kiln dried to maximize performance and end-matched for ease of installation and a custom
