Hey Pete hope all is well. This isn't collecting related, but it was a nice find for
me. These are 2 Walnut live edge slabs, both are 13" X 156" X 2" thick. Found these about 8 months ago, still haven't done anything with them yet.

Oh the possibilities for those beauties! Nice find! They'd look good as benches, a couch/entryway table, etc.

Not a lot lately. Our city went to the city provided bins for trash pickup.
Before that I'd get some nice stuff. People across the street tossed a stained glass window they replaced. And one street over I got a railroad car mover - a massive wooded pry bar used in switchyards- and a really neat coal shovel. And a few doors up a couple balloon tire bikes and a set of tire chains for them. The bikes aren't all that good, but the old bike guys I've talked to have never seen anything like the tire chain set. Yes, I collect way too much "stuff" |

Along the same wood line I have a friend who owns a high end cabinet shop. He gives me any wood at his cost I want and all the maple cutoffs I want. Can’t tell you how much curly maple I have for free but they make awesome cutting boards like this one below. Drew

Here’s one I made from walnut with maple accents. Very nice. Not to get into a cutting board thread but here is a similar one I just finished with a brick wall pattern. Walnut with maple “mortar” with some red padauk bricks thrown in for accents. Drew
