Lumber yards have decent pieces of wood which may be a bit pricier but may also better suit your purpose. If you're building a twenty year layout, another $50 spent on lumber won't make a bit of difference one way or the other in the budget but may save you a lot of headaches in the future.

I will have 1x4 L girder style legs. One thing Dad taught me was to do it right or don't do it.
