That will work better than pine if it's good quality oak.
No knots, etc.

I wonder how rough sawed oak would hold up? Find a local mill, and
they'll cut it to whatever thickness you'd like. I bought some for a
barn project from a local guy and it was surprisingly cheap for what I
got. Sometimes if you take some odd sizes they can't get rid of you can
get it really cheap.
