rubberwood butcher block for desktop

[elfenix 34223]

anyone know about this stuff?  about 75% of the price of birch.  since it's not being used as a counter durability doesn't seem like it could be an issue.

I don't know how much blooks are where you live, but in America they are not for sale and quite frankly I find buying people offensive.

Now I look petty. I need to upgrade to the platinum package. How much do you have to pay to get Blacklab to fix titles?

I found these, but I'm not sure what type of wood they are. Also, I don't know if they'll work with your desktop dimensions, which are really unusual for a monitor.

Spoiler

 

Good luck!

I took delivery of this one last week from Home Depot:

https://www.homedepot.com/p/Interbuild-Acacia-6-ft-L-x-40-in-D-x-1-in-T-Butcher-Block-Island-Countertop-in-Light-Oak-Stain-669278/309409301?MERCH=REC-_-pip_alternatives-_-312360362-_-309409301-_-N

 

It got really banged up in shipping, so I had to return it. It seemed like a quality piece of wood otherwise. Like you said, for just a desktop, it's not like it needs to be indestructible, just enough to hold a monitor and a keyboard. Lowe's also has them:

And then the Ikea offerings:

every ikea offering is out of stock except for the shitty hollow core table tops.  maybe it's all special order.
