Q:Hi! Looking to build a desk. How hard is the bark to sand off? Also I love the look but would hate if the wood curved in in the center changing the width. Is there a way to pick of a straighter piece more suitable for a desk top?

Answer This Question

A:  Hi None, The bark comes off fairly easy with a chisel and then sanding to make smooth. The 4 footers tend to not have much curve so you should be in great shape for a desk.

    A:  Please note, the live edge slabs will not be 16 inches wide throughout. By choosing this item you will get the widest slabs we offer, which are 12-16 inches in width. I hope that helps!

        A:  Hi DonR, I would recommend glue and nails and a clear poly finish. These are sanded but we recommend removing and sanding off the bark before finishing.

          A:  Hi Fumfy, These are used for this application all the time. The slabs are normally pretty straight around 10-11'' wide throughout the whole slab.

            A:  Hi Patw, Most people peel off the bark and sand the edges and top and bottom. After that most people use a poly finish or an epoxy bar top finish. Feel free to reach out to us at 818-953-5350 for more questions.
