i found this link in the latest WWJ magazine (the free digital copy someone posted"
http://www.habitat.org/cd/env/restore.aspx
theyre basically home salvage warehouses,taking donations from people and leftover items/materials etc.
we have a few other similar places near me, "build it green" in brooklyn, and another place out in eastern long island.
i think it's pretty awesome that HFH is running these all over the country!!
i'll definitely pay a visit to the one here, wonder if i'll find veneered ply there,i have a wall unit i want to make for my bedroom think i'll post the sketch of that in another thread ~
anyone else salvage stuff for building their projects? ive made lots of pieces from solidwood furnituere ive found at the curb etc..mostly though i like resawing "firewood" or whole logs i get from folks/arborists,
i really get enjoyment from repurposing it and keeping valuable materials out of the landfill (although now i'm getting buried in wood,every nook/cranny of my shop becomes home to whatever will fit it)
