'Desk Sized' Slab Wanted

[markyuk]

Hi All,

 

I'm after a nice slab to make a new desk out of at home - dimensions anything around 1700x650mm or bigger. I'll consider any wood as long as it's got some character to it. Kiln or air dried please.

 

Noticed a post a while back from someone after a kitchen table sized slab which got some good responses so thought I'd try my luck.

 

If single slabs are not your thing happy to consider buying a few as I have friends who have expressed an interest too.

 

Let me know what you have (pics & prices). I'm based in the South East near Sevenoaks.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Mark

Hello Mark,

I've got some oak slabs about 2m x 0.8? Not sure.

About 50mm thick.

Ive got some burry oak boards that have been air dried for over two years, plenty of character. I could flatten them for you if needed. The best one looked like this when I cleaned it up. Im in Wadhurst

Cheers bud, Ive made a few things out of the boards but there is only so much burry wood you can have in your house!
