8/4 natural edge slabs - PVW - 07-16-2020
just dried approx 600 bd ft x 8' hard maple and 600 bd ft x 8' cherry. Stack is 4' wide to give you an idea on some of the widths. couple boards with machined edge. $4K cash pickup in Garrett County MD

Wow some of that must be 18" to 20" wide.

Ooh cherry and maple! My favorite flavors!! That's quite a deal. $3.33/bf if my math is correct.

What is the range of widths on these slabs I see the larger ones and am guessing 14 " about max?
thanks

I can check today but I think some are over 20

here are some measurements listed on ends for reference. Also pic of the edge of the maple. It should have some nice figure. All maple came from same tree. Same with the cherry

It must be the math guy in me. You said the stack was 48" wide and there were several in a few rows that had just 2 boards.
It looks like most of them are over 13" which is quite the buy. To bad I am now closer and had the funds and being 8/4 is almost a steal.
