I've glued plenty of solid oak in the past but none like this, it looks like good stuff though, and a kitchen is goignto sit on some of it.<br />As for the wide boards we had to use them to match up with the boards in the living room, which this floor carries on from. I used boards this wide before but with solid oak there is normally some groves to prevent cupping in the back.Kev Alvitihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992625860900617194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5081662385488791554.post-4195538973345789242013-04-11T16:12:09.375-07:002013-04-11T16:12:09.375-07:00Interesting, once again contrasting with this side...Interesting, once again contrasting with this side of the pond, In 30 plus years of this sort of work I have never come across a glued down engineered wood floor. On a cement slab like yours, here it would be done as a snap lock floating floor over a 3 mm foam. I have never come across wide single plank look like that here either. Looks good.Mike Silviushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10406468736304441962noreply@blogger.com
