Timber Yard Tales - 2025
What a year it’s been in the world of timber!
From practical tips on stacking and storing wood, to quirky tales about why floors squeak or fences fade, Little Steve has been keeping your week filled with timber know-how and a few laughs along the way.
Whether you’ve tackled a DIY weekend project, nailed a new deck, or simply enjoyed reading about what makes timber tick, we hope these tales have added a bit of Kiwi charm to your building adventures. Every story, tip, and timber fact has been about making life easier – and a little more fun – for builders, tradies, and DIYers alike.
Looking ahead to 2026, we’ll keep bringing the same mix of handy advice, timber wisdom, and lighthearted yarns straight from the WBS Henderson yard. So, here’s to more projects completed, more timber mastered, and maybe even a few dodgy jokes survived along the way!
Little Steve’s Year-End Tip:
“Take a moment to admire your handiwork – timber has a way of making even the smallest project feel legendary.”
"That’s it for these yarns so far, but the timber yard never runs out of stories. Each week we’ll dive into another tale - the kind you don’t hear in a classroom, but you’ll remember when you’re out on the tools. From building tricks to timber myths, Little Steve’s always got another story up his sleeve."
