    I saw the slabs in Carba-tec. They are pretty irregular in size and are about $150 each.
    Ill get one if I cant find some better CL timber here.

    Sooo?? How big were they on average?... Do you have a chainsaw? If not I have one here... you can cut whatever length you wish and if you have access to a large bandsaw with a resaw blade or know of a mill nearby to you can have it sawn to boards of whatever thickness you want... OR you can buy my 18in bandsaw with resaw blade and do it yourself... the bandsaw is in the for sale section of the board... For the timber I will take $100 for what? lets say a trailer load minimum of 2 lengths or max of 5 (any thickness any length your choice) sound fair?.

    This is bare timber in the round been on the ground for 2 years so still wet but get it sawn and she will dry pretty quick... heck maybe for a later job! Whatever offers there

    The wood show is on this weekend and the milling displays have had camphor laurel logs for at least the last couple of years. You should be able to pick some up dirt cheap at the end of the show, but you will need to let it season.
