STANDARD SHAPE

Standard slabs are milled at the trunk of the tree and vary in widths and lengths making them the most versatile choice for all types of projects.

Y-SHAPED

Y-shaped or "crotch" slabs are milled at the fork and often have one end of the slab wider than the other. These work best for freestanding furniture such as desks and tables.

ROUNDS/COOKIES

Rounds or "cookies" are often milled at 3-5 inches thick allowing for a stockier slab when finished. Rounds have live edges along the perimeter of the slab.

MINIMAL EDGE

Some slabs offer minimal variation in widths and a relatively straight live edge. These slabs typically have straight grain patterns, light figuring, and little to no organic variation.

ORGANIC EDGE

These are our most common types of live edges. These edges offer more visual characteristics like figured grain, knots, mineral coloring, and naturally shaped edges.

EXTREME EDGE

These are our less common types of live edges. These slabs offer premium visual characteristics like heavily figured grain, burls, unusual shapes, and unique patterns.

NO LIVE EDGE

This option is ideal for projects where only straight edges are needed. This may be an option for you if you're simply looking for a solid wood surface. Projects using no live edges may include shelving, countertops, benches, doors, etc.

NO LIVE EDGE

This option is ideal for tops that will be placed against a wall or structure and need one edge to sit flush. In some cases, a freestanding top may need one straight edge for additional functionality or movability.

TWO LIVE EDGES

This option is ideal for freestanding tops that have both edges intact and allow space around the entire top. Having two live edges are also suitable and most popular for tables, island tops, barn doors, coffee tables, etc.

INVERTED LIVE EDGES

This arrangement is not as common and would be ideal for projects involving a large void between two slabs joined with either epoxy or glass. This design requires one wider width slab or two individual slabs.

BOULE OF SLABS

When milled, the wane of each slab will reflect which area of the tree it is from. Depending on the size of the log, each log will yield an equal amount of flat and contoured edges.

WANE DOWN

When the wane edge is facing downwards, the top face provides more surface area to use and can add up to 6" inches in total width. This option is the most common for dining tables, desks, etc.

WANE UP

With the wane edge facing upwards, the bottom face provides more area to cover. This also allows the live edge to be more visible and your body to easily transition towards the surface (i.e benches).

WANE NOT APPLICABLE

For edges that are relatively flat, burly, or straight, wane direction may not apply. In this instance, choosing the most appealing face of the slab would be required.

SINGLE SLAB

Single slab is the most preferred option for custom projects but may not always be available depending on the scope of the project. These slabs will not always have symmetrical edges and will vary in dimensions based on the nature of the tree.

BOOKMATCH/GLUE-UP

Bookmatched slabs offer symmetrical grain patterns and produces a mirrored look. Availability for a bookmatch set is limited. Joining two slabs from the same boule is a secondary option as well. This creates a similar look to bookmatched slabs.

MULTIPLE SLAB GLUE-UP

Multiple slabs are often required when much larger widths are needed or selection is limited. This is most common for projects where widths exceed 46" or customers have interests in using our budget-friendly slabs for a project.

MITER JOINING

Miter joining is when we join slabs with the ends cut at an angle. This creates a continuous surface often designed for corner desks, bar tops, countertops, etc. Depending on the width of the slab, allow for extra length to be lost for every miter join needed.

WATERFALL EDGE

Waterfall corner joints can be built in lieu of a table leg (or legs), or to wrap down the side of a structure. We would join slabs at the ends for a continuous flow from start to end (preferred). This option is best for desks, receptions, island tops, coffee tables, bar tops, etc.

INVERTED

This method is not conventional and would be used only when having two live edges face each other. Voids can be filled with inlays, epoxy, glass, or kept empty. This can also be ideal for customers interested in a project with a partial join.

NO FILL

Keeping the void empty may be an option for you if the void is an accent and won't hinder the functionality of the project.

INLAYS

Adding an inlay provides stability and additional usable surface area. This can be in the form of slats, bowties, crosses, and other shapes.

EPOXY RESIN

For a smooth and solid surface, we can use epoxy resin to fill the area using either clear, translucent, or an opaque coloring.

NO FILL

Choosing no fills highlights the natural look and feel of the wood. Surface checks are typically minor and do not affect functionality.  

WOOD BOWTIES

Bowties add stability to a slab with medium sized cracks. Bowties can be made from the same wood, contrasting wood, or metal.

EPOXY RESIN

Resin filled cracks offer a seamless surface and would keep the slab from trapping dust and debris. This is best for larger cracks.

NATURAL FINISHES

This is our standard finish for most of our projects. Osmo Polyx-Oil is a microporous finish made from natural oils and waxes. This finish preserves the natural look and feel of wood and can be easily maintained over time.

SPRAY FINISHES

Spray finishes are more durable compared to oil and natural finishes as it provides a film layer that sits on top of the wood. Spray finishes are more resistant to wear and is ideal for heavier use or commercial settings.

OUTDOOR FINISHES

Outdoor finishes provides a flexible and protective layer with built-in UV blockers to keep outdoor furniture lasting longer. Furniture exposed to natural elements and large temperature changes (either directly or indirectly) will require additional care and maintenance.

PERSONALIZATION

Custom CNC engraving is an option for signage, gifts, branding, etc. Cuts can be kept bare or filled with an epoxy coloring of your choice.

CUTOUTS

We can make cut outs for accessories, cable management, fixtures, drains, etc. for an easier installation process.

TEMPERED GLASS

Tempered glass can be incorporated in your design for enhanced durability and maintenance. Glass can be used as a surface or to fill voids.

HARDWARE

Solid metal accents can be included in your project for reasons such as edge-banding, stability, channels, bowties, etc.  

TABLE LEG SELECTIONS

Browse our selection of custom-order table leg styles. Available in multiple sizes, finishes, and styles. View table legs here.

SUPPLY YOUR OWN

We can mount the existing table base to your new top or use a base that's been ordered through a another vendor.

CUSTOM WOOD BASE

For a completely natural look, we can design and fabricate a custom wood base using the same wood species.

CUSTOM METAL BASE

We can work with our trusted metal fabricators or a fabricator of your choice to build a custom metal base that suits your style.

NATURAL EDGES

Live edge slabs may show natural signs of bug trails, claw grabs, chainsaw marks, etc. along the faces and edges of the slab.

EPOXY RESIN

For transparent colors or clear epoxy pours, there may be inevitable tiny air bubbles along the outer edges of the pour.

KILN-DRIED

Every slab we work with have been or will need to go through our vacuum kiln. This ensures a stable and pest-free wood slab.

MAINTENANCE

Natural wood requires routine maintenance and upkeep. Surfaces should be free from the liquids, heat, moisture, etc. to keep it in optimal condition.

INSTALLATION

We do not perform any built-in installation. We can mount table legs and hardware onto the wood slab, but we do not install wood slabs for counters, mantels, shelves, built-ins, etc. A third-party installer may be required.

LEAD TIMES

Lead times are an estimate and will vary based on the scope of the project, availability, change orders, and production schedule. Epoxy rivers, bulk, customer-supplied wood, etc. will require additional lead time.
