love going green..
« on: May 02, 2012, 03:37:26 pm »
I work dominantly with reclaimed wood. And wood that I have milled from weather claimed trees..


these bowls are hand carved from old barn rafters.


These shells came from reclaimed 2x4 cutoffs from a construction site.


These items all came from boards from a structure dating back to the 1920s. They were piled in a field going to waste until I got them.

nice work, it's good to see reclaimed timber put to good use.

Well done.  Thanks for sharing.   I am still trying to figure out what to do with some OLD barn siding.

Nice work here, really like the shells from the 2X4's.

Excellent use of reclaimed and re-purposed wood.   I really liked the bowls as they remind me a lot of the kind of bowls often found in the deep rural areas. Thanks for sharing your works with us.
