Seller’s Note:

I want to make sure people don’t miss out and that no wood is overlooked  Cottonwood, like hackberry and others is one wood species in the past that was overlooked but not anymore and in some areas growing rapidly in appeal.   All of the cottonwood lumber I have and acquired was recovered from the ocean.  I believe the extended period of time many of the logs spent in the ocean salt water ( some probably years ) reacts with the natural components inside the wood to create something new and more beautiful and unique.  Some of the logs recovered there has been most likely shipworm and or gribble activity to varying degrees also creating more natural beauty that can be highlighted in a project. Ocean salvaged cottonwood log slab lumber has been the first choice to use of many customers for their woodworking projects.  The colors and grain patterns found in cottonwood vary immensely, it can range from a very light colored blonde to as dark of a color range closer to a walnut and everywhere in-between in the same slab.  Some of the most loved images of finished woodworking projects we completed have been from ocean salvaged cottonwood slabs.  So judge and decide for yourself what you love and want to buy and use not a past and out-dated opinion..  If you wish to see some finished projects that used ocean salvaged cottonwood go to south texas creations on facebook and look for yourself, you’ll be amazed at the beauty that was hidden inside those ocean logs.
