Saving money by urban logging #3: 3300 boardfeet of reclaimed douglas fir!

I love Oregon pine,, so nice to work with, and the grains are so distinct. Being so old the colour should be spectacular to.. go score.

wow… if you have the storage for the other 120, are you going to take them?

I also love Oregon pine. although people tend to underestimate it because its hard to finish, i got some really nice things out of it. I even use it for serving boards, as getting maple is very dear here and it gives very nice contrast to the darker woods i use. I found that finishing it with oil finish (even just BLO, but tung oil is much nicer) is really easy and you can get mirror smooth surface with wet sanding with the oild. gets really nice shine and depth out of the rings.

Just got myself 120 lm of oregon, so I’ll probably do heaps of stuff from it!

-- The woods are lovely, dark and deep, but I have promises to keep...

kudos !

I’m going to take what I can fit on my buddies backhoe trailer, and in my e350 ford van, which should be almost all of the available floor joists and roof rafters.

Wow…what a find. I need to find an offer like that…just a little closer to the panhandle of FL.

I got a 20×32 1900 carriage house timber frame for free in upstate NY….

Nice find. Good luck in the collection and in the use of the wood.

nice find. someone here in Boston is taking out a cape, and offered all the timber for free a couple of weeks ago.
