    Default Help cut small slab in Maitland NSW

    Gday guys.

    I sourced some slab material of eastern red cedar.



    They are around 550x 250 and 75mm thick.

    The items I make are 25 to 30 thick so would like to have these sliced.

    Anyone know where I might be able to have this done or can help with advice.

    Thanks in advance. Here is the item I make and sell.

    If it's only 250 it should go through a 17" bandsaw easily. You should get two 30mm thick pieces after dressing.
    I only have a 14" bandsaw but I'm sure there is someone locally with a 17". The local mens shed perhaps.
    Those were the droids I was looking for.

    lol, you'll be there all the time now.
    I used to live in South Seas Dve. They opened the mens shed in East Maitland a week after I moved.
    Those were the droids I was looking for.
