Have a great day John!

I just called Glenna down in Spray. She said she'll buy both of them and let me know when they can be picked up. I told her Diane want's one also and she said this guy get's them from motels that change them out every 4 years. He then goes through them and refreshes them and sell's them. $350 each! Not bad considering they sell for $1,500 new!

Good morning Oregon FTE Gang and friends.

It's some kind of laminate that Home Depot sells. I gave it some fairly thorough testing before they bought it. It should have enough give to stand up to normal use. If you bend it more than 30° you run the risk of breaking it. I even whacked it with a 3lb hammer on the concrete floor at Home Depot to see how it would react.

I really didn't have a dog in the fight so I kind of let them pick what they wanted.

I went with real wood for my house. But it was almost 3 times the cost. They didn't want to spend that much money.

Morning Tiny! Not a big fan of the laminates. Real wood is far better...
