That's a big board you got there! 

What do you plan to do with it, stringman?

Pulling that long plank is a task itself, cutting it is another one. :lol:

Yeah, you'll need a portable table saw or a big bow saw just to get it started :lol:
But it's a shame to just leave it sitting around :-D

That's a big slab! Wow!

The cracks we cant do anything about it.  You can just cut around it, besides the slab is huge!  How thick is it? 3, 4 inches thick?

The things houngan do with that thing...

my thoughts exactly.

It's 3 inches thick    it's a 37 x 13.5 slab

anyways, i still have SLAB #2 (2.25 inches thick and is 22 x 17) , and it doesn't have cracks like that of Slab #1.
