I want to get a good looking table top (I already have a base), about 6 ft long and 3 feet wide.

Where can something like that be found and at what appx. cost?
Thanks

Not the 100 plus or minus I've gone to in the last year...
Home centers have planks suitable for table tops.

you can get 6 to 8 quater maple tops from Grizzley (at least they used to carry them) that are like the restaurant work tables, and work bench table tops.

The local door shop in my town has a large oops pile. I hope that's because it has built over time, and not that they have employee training problems. $10 to $15 each, take your pick.
