Oak for trade
I aquired some oak (don't know what kind) over the weekend and
don't have any use for it but I hate to see it go to waste. I have 5 pieces total. List below... 1pc - 3 3/4 x 7 x 30 2pc - 3 1/2 x 7 x 42 2pc - 3 x 3 x 40 These are not perfect but I'm sure you could get 4 "large" legs, or perhaps a table pedastal out of them. Anyone in the DFW area interested in trading? I'll entertain anything worthwhile, tools, other hardwoods, etc. Make me an offer. Larry |

Every red oak species has pretty much the same physical characteristics and appearance as every other; ditto white oak. How to tell the difference, method 1: wet the end of a board, and smell it. Wet white oak smells like vanilla and toast. Wet red oak smells like cat ****. How to tell the difference, method 2: look at the end of a board. Red oak has visible open pores. White oak does not. How to tell the difference, method 3: suck on the end of a board like it was a soda straw. You can draw air through red oak, but not through white. |
