We can buy bundles of cut offs from a rail road tie Mill. 1000 bdft bundles off mixed species for $200. By the time you sort out the culls and other wood it's closer to $0.40 bdft. $0.25 to have it dry kilned and $0.35 ft to have it milled. So it's $1.00 a ft for wide plank flooring. Worth it? Should I run the other way? Beech is known too have stability issues, does kiln drying help?
There's not a lot on SMC about beech except plane blocks
