Cebloplast slabs

[gwilki]

I have the following cebloplast slabs:

4 - 13 ½" x 5 5/8" x 5/8" = $250USD each plus shipping from Canada

3 - 13 ½" x 6 ¼" x 5/8" = $275USD each plus shipping from Canada



Colour is shown in the attached pen pic.

Thank you

Edit: The slabs are all sold.

I'll take the 4 slabs for $250.00

If at $250.00 each slab I will pass on these. At first I saw 4 @ thinking 4 slabs for $250.00
Sorry for any confusion, Keith

That was my poor wording, Keith. I have edited the post.

Could you post a pic of the slab?
I am interested in how square they are, ie. how many blanks I could cut from it. If I'm doing my math right, the 6 1/2" x 5/8" would be ten 5/8" x 5/8" x 13 1/2" pieces but that only works if it is a very even edge.
Thanks

Even if perfectly square, I think you'd probably only be able to get 9--don't forget about the kerf of your saw blade when cutting. That'll probably cost you 1/2 inch using a 1/16 in. kerf blade.

Yeah, good point.
I'm trying to figure out if it's worth it so calculating how many blanks is kind of important.

I'm attaching two pics, showing 2 of the slabs with a square beside them. The corners of the slabs are square.

That said, please see that the wider blanks are 6 1/4" wide, not 6 1/2". (Eric, I sent you a message about this.) So, if you figure that each 5/8" wide blank takes 3/4" of material, including a 1/16" kerf, you get 8 blanks out of each slab. You would get 7 out of the narrower slabs. (The numbers are actually 8.3 and 7.5, but only whole blanks matter, clearly.)
