Hello Orchidland,

    I wanted to add another source for butcherblock tops - restaurants
    and meat markets. Look for a going out of business auction or sale.
    The top will be pretty well marked up, but usually the reverse of the
    solid wood top is unmarred. Sometimes the top has already been
    flipped, so be sure to check the underside. 

    Be aware - these suckers are HEAVY, so be prepared to have some
    strong helpers when you want to move the top or put it on legs for a
    bench. 

    Judy in Kansas, where the weekend showers were most welcome.
    Harvested lots of asparagus and can almost watch the strawberries
    swell. Bet I'm picking strawberries next weekend... if I can beat
    the turtles to them!
