Title: Got back in the shop this week
Post by: Bruno of NH on January 31, 2018, 11:58:12 AM
I have put off milling for another month.
I have more logs than ever to mill but i'm going to repower the mill first.
Been cutting and selling firewood but it got my arthritis kick up bad  :(
Wanted to do some projects to sell this winter so its a good time.
I got a hold of more reclaimed cedar (red) again and the last things i made with it sold out fast  :)
i also have some ideas on some small live edge tables i'm going to try and live edge pine benches like i have made before they always sell good.

 Some pics of the things i have been making.
Made out of reclaimed cedar from deck railings.
I try to keep every thing under $150.
Made things like this style 2 years ago and it sold fast :)
it all has 3 coats of hand rubbed spar varnish on them so they can be used inside or on a porch.

Looks nice, where do you sell from? Is your area touristy?

Two new benches I built with reclaimed cedar top and Russian larch legs
One has cedar and larch combo legs (https://forestryforum.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36349/20180302_112456.jpg?easyrotate_cache=1521754934) (https://forestryforum.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36349/20180302_112511.jpg?easyrotate_cache=1521754912) (https://forestryforum.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36349/20180302_133513.jpg?easyrotate_cache=1521754894) (https://forestryforum.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36349/20180302_133537.jpg?easyrotate_cache=1521754871) (https://forestryforum.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36349/20180302_133545.jpg?easyrotate_cache=1521754846)

The exchange rate is a killer.  The Goat requires 2 of everything else for one SGU :).
