Nice recycling job!

A lot of tricky work in that job. Well done. Nice use of recycled timber.

Dittos on the recycling. The screens look very nice.

Nice wood and tricky job.

I like it – cheap materials + good craftsmanship = high class project.

Excellent work. I always enjoy the details that you provide all of us during your projects.

Great posting. Screens are something I need to put in my backporch. You did an exceptional job.

Thanks all. The very fist screens I made were with pocket screws and pine, painted to match our windows. I recommend wood screens for their beauty to anyone with wood windows.

Great stuff Giz….your making want to sell my house and jump in to a renovation. My wife says we have to wait until my youngest finishes her masters though…:( What…she can’t study with powertools screaming in the background? I told her the spring of 2009 she better be ready to pack.

Bob…. Don’t you see? It’s a cautionary tale. You have to live in the dump while you fix it up. Still lots of houses in the neighborhood if you want to move out west.

Way to recycle, I hate to see beautiful wood go to waste I have the town dump right behind my house and I’ve collected so much good lumber back there it just isn’t funny. Your on my A list Giz. mike

Thanks Mike.

The wood is cheap too.

Great job John! I used Douglas Fir for things like that when I lived in California. Can’t get it here in Texas
as far as I know. SYP seems to be king here.

I used to live just down the 210 from you in Azusa. I do miss Tommy’s burgers, In-n-Out, Northwoods….
