Board Details

Spalted* elm board with lots of interesting character and colour variations. Various voids and cracks ideal for filling with epoxy resin. The second of three boards cut from the same log which could be joined if you want a wider table or desk. Please email if you would like further details on this option.


The pictures show the unfinished board in our workshop. Its appearance will be transformed after processing to reveal the wood grain and patterns.


The price shown is for a completely finished board:


  • Planed flat on one or both sides depending on intended use
  • Front face sanded through various grades of sandpaper to achieve a super smooth surface
  • Reverse face / underside coarse sanded
  • Live edges and board ends sanded smooth and corners lightly rounded over
  • Placement of recessed inserts and stainless steel socket bolts for leg attachment
  • Your choice of OSMO protective finish applied, raw, matt, satin or gloss hardwax oil
  • Table assembly



Description


  • Large open pockets, cracks and bark inclusions
  • Some softer areas around old knots
  • Live edges have old burr growths adding interest


*Spalting is the term given to unique colouration and patterns on the wood surface caused by fungi in dead or stressed trees. The black lines are caused by competing fungi species trying to grab their share of the wood! The fungi are killed by the kilning process.

Tree Location

Optional Cutting Services - Edge Options and Custom Sizing costs
​Careful measurements are taken to minimise the amount of wood 'lost' when cutting a live edge board to make square sides and corners to square. If you want to do this then we will email you a picture showing the amount of wood that would be removed and the revised dimensions of the board.
 
The board won't be cut until we receive confirmation from you that you are happy to proceed.
 
Square ends only e.g. to place a shelf in an alcove - £25.00
One square side e.g. to place a desk or table against a wall - £25.00
Cross cutting to length - £10
Rip Cutting down the length  e.g. to make a river table - £25.00
