Re: Inexpensive furniture woods

For inexpensive wood keep a lookout for buisness remodeling, churches and as you riding through the neighborhood. I was given a bunch of junked benches from a church in the area. I took the benches scraped them and then got go looking in books and identified it and I asked friends to concurr that it is mahogany. It is not a nice intertainment center, a curio cabinet and the last looks like it is going to be two bookshelves. I have a cedar tree cut up and built a cedar chest. I have picked up wood from pallets, crates, and you name it and some of it is nothing but fireplace wood but a big part is usable. My problem is I am running out of storage space. I also used a rotting oak tree that was cut down and got a lot of beautiful crotch and burl and a lot of straight wood.
