Great day I'm sure.......what kind of wood stuff do y'all sell? Sounds interesting.

yukon cornelius · May 25, 2014, 09:53:04 PM

we sell shelves, crates, tables, beds, swings, barbed wire "art", metal "art"....whatever I make through the week.

the weather was great....meeting a member was great....swap meet however, I think its time to find a new one. its amazing what people will spend money on and what people wont. next weekend one a third the distance.

Hey good to meet you today. Did the guy buy the bed? To all members who read this He makes some really nice stuff.

we did sell the headboard so it wasn't a total wash. I was glad to come home at least a little lighter. I did however buy a craftsman shop vac like new 15 gallon with the large hose and all the attachments for $15. I figured it wouldn't work when I got it home but worked like a champ! I had been shopping for one the day before. glad I waited.

thanks for the compliment on our work!

here is a few things we sell. I have about 100 other things we make to sell. nothing sells great other than yard swings/ porch swings. I make swings with log spindle backs also. I have a post in general woodworking with a few more pics.

That all looks nice, mighty nice!! I see that hollow piece of wood needs a plant in the third picture. I have some small cedar like that.

That's some very nice work. I especially like the little bench.

the hollow log is for flowers. we use the coconut hair bowls like what goes in hanging baskets and then staple them inside the log with big staples to hold the dirt. everyone likes them but no one has bought one from us. probably because one weighs 90lbs and shipping is outrageous high.

Nice work yukon, do you guys also make the preserves in the first pic and sell them with the "basket"? The bench and the swing are great.

yukon cornelius · May 28, 2014, 10:25:31 PM

we do make preserves and canned goods but we don't sell them with the crate. display purposes only. we have sold a few crates. we also make a red cedar version without the rope but 2 little handles on the ends. they are the dimensions of the 6 plant flower containers from a green house.
