      Really nice end result, although a bit tricky to replace!

        Love it...
        Reminds me of my parents cottage where I was born - hundreds of years ago the floor boards were literally slabs of wood sawn from a tree and worked so they abutted each other with minimal waste.
        I assume you must get a 'room' pack of planks made specifically for you and it all fits together like a jigsaw puzzle.
        Bummer if you get halfway through fixing it and find you've started off with the wrong piece of plank πŸ˜’
        Also what happens when you mis-cut a plank or damage one - as they are all seem to be unique then getting a replacement [made] could be painful ?
        The fitting-instructions must be like super IKEA's flat-pack instruction-sheets... 50 pages of ...connect plank abc-12345 to plank abc-12344..., with these codes printed on the back of each plank ???

          I agree, they must approach it like a kitchen fitter - all preplanned and mapped out
