FS: Canadian Maple Bowling Alley shaftwood (LIMITED QUANTITIES)

[Guerra Cues]

Hello,

I still plenty of stock of AAA and AA of Canadian maple bowling alley shaftwood. By the way, the maple is over 40 years old and some of it is still stamped Made In Canada.

As you can see I have also cut the corners of the squares, that should speed up the cutting process a bit.

AAA Grade (more than 20gpi): 17.50 plus shipping
AA Grade (between 10 and 20gpi): 10.00 plus shipping

When ordering send me a pm with your name and email so I can send you an invoice.

Bowling lane shafts

How hard were these to take apart
I bought 20 lanes last week that are 63 feet long and 42inches wide. I bought them for workbench tops. But I will have tons left over . Any tip on cutting these lanes.

My first guess is that you will go through a lot of new blades and Home Depot will thank you for that.

Most likely the boards are nailed together and spot glued.
You will need a small pry bar and 2 1/2 lb sledge hammer to drive the boards apart. You will need to do that probably every other 2 feet.
Then you need to tap the board back and pry the nails out.
I have a bucket with about 50lbs of nails, good to manufacture some bullets if need be.
Make sure all the nails are out of the boards because some they do break. That's when the blade of your saw will be ruined and HD will welcome you again, again and again. I'm going on the 2nd pry bar, right now.
After all is set and done, you have to throw away dozens and dozen of boards that you thought it would give you AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA++++++++++++++++++ shafts.
There is a lot of work, time and some frustration at times in order to get the good stuff out of pile.

Sounds like its going to cost me more than the 1260 feet of bowling lanes cost to make into shafts.

I am not trying to discourage you because it all depends how the boards are put together, but you will find great wood for shafts for sure.
