The reverse side of the cuttings in both FAS and Cabinet Grade are not required to be sound. No piece shall be admitted which contains pith, boxed or showing, exceeding in the aggregate in inches in length twice the surface measure in feet. Wane on the Cabinet side shall not exceed one-fourth the width by three-fourths the length in the aggregate, or pieces may alternately have wane one-third the width by one-half the length in the aggregate. Width of the wane may be divided and show on both edges. Length of wane allowed both edges. There is no 1st Lineal Foot Rule or restriction to knot size outside the cutting area.
