Bowling alley lane wood for component tables?


I have some slices of a bowling alley lane that is, I believe oak, and about one and a half inches thick. I thought it might be a good idea to make an isolation table for my Rega Planar 3 out of this stuff rather than spending good money on something like this. What do you think? What kind of feet do I put on this, metal spikes or rubber like feet?
Thanks,

Hello everyone,
Thanks for your comments. Yes, the bowling alley wood is maple and there are no nails in it or nail holes. It consists of inch and a quater lengths that are about an inch and a half thick, then glued together. The pieces are solid and heavy. I am gonna go ahead and make the component tables out of this stuff.
So the next step is decided on the feet. Do I use spikes and what kind, or do I use some kind of sorbethane feet?
I am making it for a Rega Plana 3 table, which picks up my steps when I walk on the wood floor in my living room. I think I will also make one for my Magus preamp and my Rotel CD player.
Cheers,
Joe
