A brief look into our daily business;

This stunning Cypress slab (measuring 3.5mtrs x 1.2mtrs at its widest point down to 0.8mtrs at its narrowest) is one of a few slabs we were able to salvage from a magnificent specimen in Gweru. The process can be long and rather tedious, from intitial setup to the actual milling of each slab followed by transport and finally the lengthy drying period before we even touch a piece. We air dry every one of our slabs and constantly monitor them with a moisture meter to ensure they are below 10% moisture content and suitable to be worked on. This is crucial because during the drying period, a lot of movement occurs and some cracks and voids appear as a result- some more so, depending on the timber species.

With this particular slab, we have used a clear resin to fill in all the imperfections and create a smooth level surface before sealing. After a lot of sanding, all the spectacular, natural beauty and unique grain patterns begin to emerge and it is that beauty that reminds us why all the sweat and heavy lifting was worth it.

This finished piece is available for sale (complete with steel legs). It would be ideal for a dining room or board room as it will comfortably seat 12 - 14 people. Contact us on the numbers below for pricing.

For any queries about what we have available please feel free to send us an inbox or contact us on +263 7 85914029 or +263 772387178

NATAL MAHOGANY!

This beauty was salvaged from a garden in Marondera that was cut down due to its dangerous proximity to a house.

After almost a year since we procured this timber we are finally milling it and what a worthwhile wait that was! These slabs are from the main bowl and measure 4.3m x 1.3m. We have some of its branches to mill also! You have to agree this timber is one of the prettiest we have done so far!

The slabs will need time to cure down to below 10% moisture before we can safely sell them to our valued customers.

For more information on our slabs and furniture please contact us on 0785914029 or inbox us!
