I cut those down to 2-1/4" thick. And I used a two part epoxy to seal.
WOW very nice. Those must be some really big slabs because the thickness looks only 1.5". IF they are 2.5" those are some really stout slabs.
One of my lumber suppliers would take a truck load of black walnut down to Florida and bring back cypress. Guess walnut in Florida for kitchen cabinets is hard to come by and cypress is hard to come by here in Ontario.
I thought it was a two part epoxy. I am building my self a bar top for our bar in the basement of out house and was going to use that product to cover the inlays of stone.
Let me post a picture of a 10 foot board room table my buddy was commissioned to build. In the center there is an inlay of 3/8" cut stone with crushed stone laid in as grout. The inlay looks like a river bottom.
Tryed to turn the pictures but cant.... hmm
Cheers Don.
