Oak, cottonwood, blackjack, black walnut
It varies, at times. Sometimes pecan, red cedar. Just depends on what they can get.

Some oak species are nice for river pours, but I don’t know if I’d try black jack. It can be difficult to work with, but the results could be nice. Black walnut is always good and I like working with it, but it can be expensive. Pecan would be an interesting species to try in a pour!
IDK if it's the same place, but I saw a FB ad for live edge walnut slabs over near Comanche/Cache that calculated to about $3.50 a bd ft. That's a lot of work and probably 30% waste or more for woodworking but for a bar or cool table or something, it's a pretty good price.
Depending on the species and thickness, that could be a very good price.
They were 2" thick so 8/4x20"x6' comes to about 20bd ft for $60 apiece. So actually $3.00 bd ft.
That would be an excellent price if it’s white oak.
Looks good. I looked at playing with this a while back and I was shocked at the price of the epoxy. Cool though..
Yep. Epoxy pouring resin is mind bogglingly expensive. Just like all things trendy I guess.
