something we made early this year in nyatoh.

will probably build in balau similar items.

various bed frames

what kind of wood are you looking for and length?

if can fit alza like 7feet boards, no problem to send them to ipoh from klang valley.
finding the stocks of material /wood specis is more important than the location of seller.

balau would be suitable for fences/and a door/gate

as for the others in bold.. naturally i might suggest white oak since i use them often in my existing projects

TQ boss. cant wait to finish your 6feet TV slab

this week, was making complex curves on the angled legs of a table using yellow balau
just finish sanding today.
mortise n tenon joint of course.

its solid white oak for all the top, sides and drawer fronts
internal carcass is black chipboard.
sure, PM me your size L X W X D and how many drawers etc, will get back to you

wow...thanks for the pics of the slab table!

some pics of building the tv slab table

mortise &tenon legs




and also made a dovetail bench out of some of the same balau wood from powerpc

pricing depend on the size/wood/complexity of carpentry/finishing.

if you have some idea u found on google or pinterest, perhaps we can make something similar to that.

if its not to big piece, you can put in the back seat of your car, since we have hot day time. after a week alot of the moisture would have left the wood

if the wood want to warp whether u dry it within 1 month or 1year also it will happen, as u said about your tembusu after 10year still warp..
so your recommended method still will warp also.. and need to wait 10year to find out!

anyway, after it dry then we will reshape and mill it to precise dimension and remove all the warp and twist in the process.

so the important part is learning to mill the timber to exact dimensions after the timber has warped.

for example, pic below. 6feet american white oak timber and after process or milling, warpage is max 0.5mm. thats tight dimensions and ready to use. (previous 3-4mm warpage at high points, no issue, all taken out of the timber)

boss by the way, i just talked to one of the Kiln dry officers yesterday regarding why yellow balau send for KD when export for overseas market. they said its to remove the shrinkage issue caused by fresh cut balau water loss. after kd then the dimension is more stable for machining/carpentry work.

its just a freakin plank. no need to exaggerate it as furniture

so just dry it and accelerate the warping if that happens , and remill it to flat.

apa susah susah say there is no other way except to pay for big KD oven to solve the issue?

its possible to get someone to prepare those pieces to your requirement.

we can do one off items, no problem.

pic above turn into table top already

thanks!
yes sir we used 8-9pcs of lamello biscuit on each joint wood.. so each table of that size would have 80-100pcs. depend on the wood width and table width.

glue is titebond2.

wrong thread to ask man.. panels/chipboard/mdf/blockboard in solid wood topic.
