Oak is a highly revered species that is used primarily for furniture and table tops, but which also
can be used for kitchen counters and islands*. It is prized for its hardness and durability. Perfect Plank
is produced from Red or White Oak originating in New York and Pennsylvania.
In general, Perfect Plank does not inventory Oak. Custom orders with larger quantities justify both
the higher freight rates and production costs, while smaller orders do not. For this reason, orders with
smaller quantities are usually not accepted as they are cost prohibitive. On occasion we have existing
material available and we encourage customers to call or e-mail for availability.
If we have material in stock, typical production time for available Finger-jointed White Oak
Butcher Blocks can be between 1-2 weeks. Timeframe for larger custom orders can be as long as 6-8
weeks.
As with other species, Perfect Plank Oak is manufactured by either sorting for full length boards or
finger-jointing pieces of 6" to 24" into strips of the desired length. The strips are then glued face-to-face
with water resistant polyvinyl glue to create the finished plank. In many cases a butt-joint may be used
in place of a fingerjoint. This configuration is used at Perfect Plank’s discretion and is typically not
available by request.
One face is of furniture quality, sanded with 120 grit paper. Reverse side may contain defects and
is sanded with 80 grit paper. Any natural or manufactured defects are patched and sanded clean to yield
a 1-side-good product. Bottom is not patched and may contain small natural/manufacturer defects.
*Oak is not recommended for food prep surfaces, due to its porous grain structure. Customers with Oak
countertops or islands should consider using a tighter grain cutting board for their food prep.
