    Default Crows Ash Pricing?

    Can anyone give me direction on the value of recycled Crows Ash. This is part of an old dance floor, boards 75mm wide and 60 mm thick. Not mine unfortunately.
    Theres about 2000 lineal metres which covers 150 metres square, or 9 cu metres volume.
    How much should I tell my friend to ask for by linear metre or square metre.
    Any ideas?
    Regards Ken

    60 thick seems a bit thick flooring usually aint that thick 25 at most would be the thickest well done if it is tho cos that some good sized timber
    recycled timber anywhere from free to $400 to $1000/m3 would be normal depends what it is and condition.

    a lot of old dance floors were built with much wider gap between the bearers and joists then a thicker board used to give the floor its spring , cloudland ballroom brisbane was one such floor i did some refinishing work on that old floor, those boards were laid on their edge i think from memory ( it was long time ago )

    Default Crows Ash thickness

    Regarding how thick this wood is, I'm told it's 60mm, so that's what I'm saying it is. It's an old dance floor, lifted 12 years ago and in storage since.
    Regards Ken
