Default Lumber Liquidators Weekend Sale / Rosewood / Bamboo / etc.

Lumber Liquidators is having their yearly sale in which they sell off
their odd boxes. Last year they were selling boxes of approx. 28 sq.
ft (or whatever a std. box holds) for five bucks a box.

It's all tongue and groove flooring. The problem is figuring out
another use for it. Anyway, it makes an easy way to experiment with
bamboo this year.


If it's the pre-finished stuff which the factory covered with their
rock hard wonder finish be careful. Three feet of that stuff will
trash a set of HSS jointer or planer knives. DAMHIKT.
I've yet to find a chemical striper which will touch the stuff.
SiC sandpaper will do the job but you'll go thru a bunch of it.
Fire does a wonderful job on it.
