secondhand/recycling wood

[Sheffield Tony]

If you can get old wood for nothing, use it!
If you need to buy some, there are a growing number of recycling projects around the country. This site has a list:

A quick thanks for that. There is a place not far from me - I'll give it a look next time I'm passing.

I've currently got a fair pile of wood which once was my FIL's window frames, in mahogany and meranti which are a bit of a sticky mess with mastic, but look too good to waste. Thining about how to tackle them, and what to make ...
Also a couple of school lab worktops, looks like teak (?) 2' x 8' x 1 1/4" thick - I want to turn those into a vineyard table some day.
