Large Hardwood Timber Slab Live Edge River Epoxy Resin Table Top 3100mm #1

Description

Description

A long character hardwood timber slab with a highly unusual sculptural live-edge shape, substantial retained bark and dramatic natural features. It could be suitable for a rustic table, console, bar top, counter, bench or creative river/epoxy resin furniture project.

This is Board #1 from the collection.

The exact timber species was not confirmed in the original auction description, so it is being listed accurately as an unconfirmed hardwood rather than guaranteed as oak.

Approximate measurements:

Length: 3,100mm
Width at numbered/reference end: 760mm
Width at opposite end: approximately 380mm
Thickness: 42mm

A reliable centre-width measurement was not obtainable while the slab was stacked. Its width varies considerably along the irregular natural edges, so please use the photographs alongside the stated measurements.

All measurements are approximate.

Condition

Rough-sawn and unfinished, with irregular natural edges and substantial areas of retained bark. This is a heavily characterful project slab rather than a clean, ready-to-use board.

There is extensive surface staining and weathering, sawmill marks, bark loss, knots, natural voids, prominent cracks, splits and end checking. One enlarged section has particularly noticeable cracking, as clearly shown in the photographs.

Please study every photograph carefully, as they form an important part of the description. The slab is being sold in its present rough condition and will require appropriate assessment, flattening, machining, drying checks, stabilising, sanding and finishing.

The cracks and voids may require bow ties, resin filling or other suitable stabilisation depending on the intended project.

Drying and storage

The slab has been air-dried for approximately five years at a sawmill, correctly stacked on timber bearers. It is now kept in a dry, ventilated container and remains stored on bearers.

It has not been sold as kiln-dried, and its current moisture content has not been independently tested. Buyers should check its suitability for their intended environment and allow for any further conditioning required before use.

Collection only from Earls Colne, Essex.

This is a very long and heavy solid-timber slab. It is currently stacked with other slabs in dry storage, so the buyer must bring sufficient assistance and a suitable vehicle for loading.

Depending on its position within the stack, other slabs may need to be carefully moved to gain access. These must be restacked neatly on the bearers afterwards.

The eBay collection code must be provided before the slab can be taken away. Please ensure that whoever collects it has the code available to avoid delays.
