Parents house. My sisters live there now. One is above the other in the basement. Upstairs measured out at 11'4" tip to tip. It only took 35 years to get them cut & laid.
Old wood that's was sitting in the barn and now the crib for a long time. Wouldn't surprise me if the wood was cut 100 years ago. I think I'll blow the rest of this oak on a shooting table and bench.

Wow, very nice.
I love when a piece of family history is repurposed.
Love them! I can almost picture the humongous saw blade that cut the boards seeing the marks you wisely left. Bob
