I have been thinking about building a coffee table but keep changing my mind as to the style and shape. While I was driving back from the Florida Keys, I passed a cypress dealer and of course had to stop. As luck would have it, I was alone and got to spend over two hours there. Over four acres of mostly cypress and campor slabs and massive boards. Largest I saw was 3' x 12' x 3" thick heart cypress. I wound up getting two large pieces of campor crotch, a campor slab and a large cypress slab. I also picked up several campor turning blanks which should make nice bowls and plenty of practice pieces. The piece of cypress pictured is 3" thick and 58" accross at the widest point, and will possibly be my coffee table top. Since it is raining here, I haven't had the chance to unload the rest of the wood.
