Hi All
I'm looking for some really gnarly old timber, preferably hardwood rather than pine. Its for a farmhouse type table top and the idea is it should look really old and worn, like its been around for a couple of hundred years already with dings, scratches, worm holes etc. I know a certain amount of this can and will be faked. I had thought about old scaffold boards but I don't know if these are usually hardwood or not nor even where you can buy them.
Any ideas?
