Possible operations

We process the old wood that comes to us in various ways. The most common treatment is planing or brushing. All common sizes are in stock as standard in each operation.

Planed wagon planks

Planing is the most common operation for this wood. Before planing, we first rid the wagon board of dirt and nails. Then we plan them on four sides. This way you emphasize the beautiful look of oak, with dark grain and unique pattern.

Brushed wood has a look all their own. After removing dirt and nails, we brush them thoroughly. This makes seams and cracks, created by the years, very visible. The brushed wagon planks have a rough appearance with a lot of relief.

The wagonwood is glued together so tightly that you hardly see the seams; it therefore appears to be one piece. This wood is available in different thicknesses. The total width is 25 to 40 centimeters.
