Florida is a unique place at the crossroads between nature and urbanization. Touted as one of the fastest growing housing markets, Florida needs clear land to build homes and infrastructure to support the new families. In this process, many older trees that have outlived their natural life cycle are cut and brought to us. It’s incredible what species Florida houses.
Florida’s tropical climate is a heaven for species from Central and South America, Africa, Asia, and other tropical regions of the world. Our Sarasota location is getting an amazing array of logs coming in to be cut into long live edge slabs for you to choose from.
A few of the logs coming in are in the following list, but there’s many more on their way!
- Live Oak
- Jacaranda
- Norfolk Pine
- Long Leaf Pine
- Australian Pine
- Florida Rosewood (True Dalbergia)
- Eucalyptus
With our Wood-Mizer we can take each of these logs and create perfect flitch sawn book matched slabs for furniture making! Not only will we be able to provide a variety of species of woods, but also a variety of cuts to match your project’s needs.
If you have any questions, contact our Florida location at 941-388-9299 and ask for Jason Peters.
Do you have an inventory list of your live edge slabs?

Hello,
Very interesting website.My son Adam worked for Jeffrey Green studios in New Hope,Pa building live edge tables.We have been looking for a source for live edge slabs in the Bradenton area.I live on Anna Maria island.We would like to come look at your operation sometime.Another thing I’ve done is take the cut off rips from slabs that maintain the live edge and make wall hung shelves out of them anywhere from 6-8 inches deep.Good for displaying knick knacks and small items.Would you have anything like that for sale?
Hi Mack,
I’ll pass on your information to my slab specialist and see how we can get the material in the dimensions you want.

We have eucalyptus wood (logs); fresh cut from our over-40 yr. old tree. Cut from our huge, over 80′ tree in the last two days. Does your company buy such logs? Thank you for allowing this inquiry.
You would have to get them to our Sarasota, FL sawmill and we would really have to see them prior.
I am a 63 year old DIYer. I would like a round slice of love edge with some character. I am attempting to create an elevated pub table for my disabled husband and I to sit and enjoy our view of the Braden River. I want it tall enough for his wheel chair to fit under but not up to his chin. If you come across any suitable pieces, please contact me
.
