Acquire Reclaimed Lumber

[Music] so i just got a call from a buddy of mine who said that his cousin has this large couple of acres of land his house has in the corner of his land has like a pile of barn wood uh let's go check it out and see if we can make a mantle out of it as you can see a lot of beautiful farm country there's the lumber let's go check it out okay so the majority of them are they look like they're rotten all the way through um based off of a little attachment there i think they used to be holding up by either power lines or something back in the day but they're square so that might not have been the case maybe there were fence posts um for the most part they're mostly rod this one is it's no good i mean it's already eaten through this one this one looks solid this one looks like it's promising we can clean it up first things first let's load up in the truck and then break them in the workshop and see what we can do i really hope this is not a waste cause because i'm really looking forward to like a real wood beam on this outdoor mantel all right this old girl's home [Music] okay
