I was in his shop today and the fine saw dust in piles is ridiculous!!!!!!why cant I sift my own "wood flour" from his batches of hardwood fine saw dust? and what should i be paying a yard for 1708? how many layers of 1708 should i put on my floor "deck" ?
I have no idea about wood flour, from the floor or store bought in the can. If it is dry,could be the same stuff. Try it on a test spot?? Then buy something you know will work. LOL. When you tally up the bill of materials and sweat you may think better of excursions into the unknown. Out of respect I will allow someone else to help/crush you with pricing.

Glad to see you made a choice on Resin. That topic gets ugly from time to time.. You could use chopped strand and cabosil for the wood free thickener solution.. What you have done so far is looking good. Keep it up.
