Hi Guys Thought id throw this one in the Mix, nearly finished my new work bench, I made this from wood that was destined for the tip or the fire! I cant believe the waste that people throw away, most of my friends and people in general laugh at me when they see me rummaging through a skip (yeah I'm a skip rat) It's a habit that's genetic I reckon, I spent many hours and good times walking with my Grandad who was a Retired Master Cabinet Maker walking down the cop of the river dee looking for drift wood de-nailing and drying it out for use again, I don't walk the river any more but there are still treasures a plenty out there, just got to finish the centre shelving and the back now.
These are the ways I sorced the materials
friends old dinning table
barn extension off cuts
dumped bed,
thrown out desk
vices from a car boot sale
