Much like the bedroom floor, a cool idea for all of the leftover zincs.

I think it would be a good fit for the counter in a Bar.

This is amazing!! I think this would look great in an older ranch home.... or maybe some of our rental properties. Wonder how much it would cost for the labor for something like this??? ( just thinking out loud here) ha :?: :)

That all depends on how many need to be cut. Laying them down and urethaning shouldn't take more than a couple hours, but trimming pennies to fit the edges without a mill and machinist's vice would take forever. With the right equipment, you could cut a dozen a minute...but most handymen wouldn't have the right equipment.

A mix of 95% with the reverses of common date wheats would make it look awesome!
