Eat On A Wooden Slab Of Bowling History

Owner Jim Malone, after deciding to change career paths, came across a 7-foot bowling lane slab made of heart pine and used it to build a counter for his New York apartment. He was smitten with the final product. Today he owns Counterevolution, a Brooklyn, N.Y.-based furniture company, that reclaims bowling lane wood and turns it into countertops, tables, chairs and cutting boards.

Counterevolution's Table Tots 2.0 table made from reclaimed bowling lane wood. The table sits two, but when flipped converts to a surface for four.

The company has a video (above) and a website. Malone sells stained samples for $40, which he'll reimburse with purchase of a piece of furniture.
