Burmese? The ones that use for flooring bro.. Is it much expensive than merbau? Hmm

burmese teak is super expensive, should be similar pricing to walnut.
but i am not sure whats the price after they T&G it. usually i get quoted per tonne or m3

have been milling some merbau lumber to size to make big bed frame.
thickeness of 48mm down to 35mm (remove all the twist and cupping) from 6-7feet boards down to 0.5-1mm differences.
super straight after i processed it. biggrin.gif
