Project Information
Exciting stuff, this is my first project post to Lumberjocks. I recently built this box for my brother from reclaimed white oak salvaged from the old smokehouse on my property. These were siding boards and the shed was probably built around 1900.
I was amazed at the condition of this wood after just a couple passes through the planer. The smokehouse was on the family homestead that I bought from my grandfather. I really enjoyed giving this wood new life. My plan is to use all the wood I can salvage from the building as gifts for family members. That way they can all have a piece of family history.
