Hello fellow DIY-ers. I have a couple small projects (Corner of room wall to wall TV stand and simple work bench for garage) that I wanted to frame up with primarily 2x4's. Nothing super intricate or excessive weight bearing. My question is, when it comes to selecting the lumber to use, does it really matter what I select (other than not needing pressure treated or composite)? Would any old plain jane 2x4 (or other dimensional lumber) work, from say Home Depot, Lowes, Menards, etc...? I've never really dealt with carpentry and don't really know the ins and outs of it. Just curious if there is a specific type/quality I should use for indoor/out of the elements use.

-Cheers
