***SOLD*** 350 bf Hard Maple slabs by the piece or $450 takes all

[alanealane]

THIS IS SOLD AND HAS BEEN PICKED UP. THANKS

I have to make room for the car to get back in the garage this winter. So the wood has to go 

Zip 49224 is where it's located...pickup only. Prefer to sell all at once but will piece it out. PayPal or money order only.

It's hard Norway Maple from a tree that grew in front of the house I lived in most of my life. The compression curl is impressive in many of the slabs. The tree also produced some "angel-step" curl. The guy who milled and dried it was an amateur so there's some areas of checking, but nothing a couple bowties/butterflies can't fix.
There's approximately 350 board feet available which equates to 15 slabs. I conservatively measured each slab width at the ends and middle and here are the sizes per piece (all 2" thick rough sawn and dried for about 8 years):
Widths          Length
8,9,14            88
9,13,9            80
14,13,18        108
14,10,20        108
14,18,11        94
21,20,21        112
17,14,17        112
19,19,19        112
21,19,20        112
21,21,21        107
21,21,21        112
21,20,21        108
21,20,19        110
11,11,13        90
20,11,14        106


Here's a teaser of what many of these slabs contain but I'm keeping this one

Kicking the tires, really. But cost?

Ya - I wish I was about 1500 miles closer, too, at least until I got the maple.  Then I'd just as soon be here. 
  Works better to wish the lumber was here - 'bout as effective, too.

Cost for the lot is $450 as listed in the subject line.  That figures out to $1.29/bf.  I can't get construction lumber here for that.

Sorry, I missed the cost in the subject line. I am wondering the weight of this load. Over 1 ton ya think? Sorry the squirrel cage is spinning.

I would like to get us a 14" wide board to make a few platters out of it.

Yep I priced it to blow out the door. I really need the room. Hopefully that might tempt someone to make a longer drive....maybe not 1500 miles though

I used to live in Mio.  If I was still there I'd buy your maple, but that was more than 40 years ago.  Nice wide board and as it says in the original post - "(all 2" thick rough sawn and dried for about 8 years)".  I can think of a lot of projects I could do with boards that wide and thick that I can't do with the 4-6" wide and scant 3/4" thick stuff you usually see.

I need to move, all the good machines and lumber are either in the midwest or Cali, lumber prices in the northeast suck lol.

How thick are the slabs?  I am interested.
