    Default reclaimed timber (we call it wood) lol

    Here are a few pictures of some of the free timber (wood)that i collect .
    Some are from shipping crates from Sweden and the cedar is from old barns.

    Ah, the joys of reclaiming timber. Bet you can't wait to put them through the planer

    The drawer joinery in pic5 certainly looks quick and easy, but really, to me, something like dovetails would look much nicer. What was the finish?

    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.
