Regular timber from a building supply store is ideal, as it is of fixed dimension and will have a predictable strength. Self-harvested wood can be used, but is weaker when green and should be sawn to reveal any hidden defects that could cause a failure. Support beams should be free of large knots and splits and should not be twisted when viewed along a long edge.
