Hey Chuck, this is a 6/4 slab, sanded down to 5/4. Its 103" long and 44" wide. For 46 bdft. The list price was $1384 but it came with a 40% discount of $553.. So since shipping was free, it was a $831 slab. Since the slab came pre-sanded, final finishing was actually significantly easier and

Re: [AFMUG] OT Large slabs of wood

Wow four. That's great. Maybe I'll have more time for that now. I am having a base built now that uses two racks and pinion on a single shaft to raise and lower the writing desk top from sitting to standing height. We'll see how that turns out. On Sun, Jan 17, 2016, 6:03 PM Peter Kranz

Re: [AFMUG] OT Large slabs of wood

How do you keep something that wide from curling? Attaching some kind of cross grain stabalizing board? These slabs are all hardwoods, so I guess they are more resistant to that kind of thing. They also are kilned and rather thick. I’ve not noticed any dimensional changes working with

Might consider building the large slabs of wood yourself. I have put together 2"X6" tongue and groove decking by gluing them in the groove and made some 4' wide slabs. Works well. You can buy 'V' joint or non, your choice. After sand dint they look very nice. On Sat, Jan 16, 2016 at 12:36 PM,
