Seen a local ad for waney edged green oak cladding. I'm aware it will shrink etc, but i've also not seen oak cladding for this kind of price before. I assume it will be quite low grade? Building a storage shed at the moment, that will need some kind of cladding on it. I'll probably lay this cladding on top of a thin osb wrapped in housewrap (I have a spare roll of of it at home).

Does anyone have any thoughts? Bargain or avoid?

I seen it advertised. Probably classed as Meadow Oak. Growing in a park or estate. I have had good bits of this type before. Luck of the draw. Heavy it is and sore on blades. Sometimes pricey as well. Let us know how you get on with it.
 
We are just going to use shiplap in the end from a local timber merchant. Too many variables and it's a very small job. Cheers for the replies.
