I'm thinking about a new desk system for the computer room (smallest bedroom) and my ideas will involve a lot of wood.
The amount of oak involved set me wondering about other sources and solid wood flooring comes in around 18mm thick with one side nice and the other grooved to reduce cupping I guess. I'm thinking used and probably from ebay if the price is right.
I know the finish is probably going to be tough and I won't want chamfer joint lines so tongues and grooves will have to be modified or come off. So machining will be needed. Oak is Oak right? So flooring won't have any problems not found in sawn timber will it?
So really just asking if anyone has tried using flooring and if there are any unexpected problems..
Currently looking for a small amount locally to try it out unless I'm told here it's a bad idea. Just an idea at the moment so no rush.
