Lumber Run, Today...resupplied the Ash Stash

[steven c newman]

Boss had errands to run...wood supplier was home....dropped off the Boss to do her thing, and drove on over to buy a stash of wood for the shop..

ten planks @ 1 x 6 x 10'...had to be cut down to fit IN the backend of the Chevy Equinox LT.....

Besides a couple of Live Edge planks...there was a bit of fancier grain...
509355
He even threw in a couple thin, shorties to clean off a shelf..

8 trips from the car to inside of the house..
509357
And I am plumb tuckered out ( Knackered?)

Price? 10 planks @ $3 per plank....$30..

May start on a 4-5 drawer Chester Drawers...letting the lumber get used to the house, first.

Stay tuned...

Ok..that one Thumbnail is from a previous supply run..

22 boards..about 52 bft of Ash 1 x 6...
509428
This is the fancy grain I was talking about...maybe 2 drawer fronts worth?
509429
Most of the longer boards are over 5' in length....as we were cutting the 10 footers down a bit...as the Boss would want to be able to sit in HER front seat.


Plan right now for this stash? a Chest of Drawers, with Frame & Raised Panel sides...made a small version last spring..might use a few details learned from that build...
509430
Case works..
509431
Like this, only it will be a "full sized" version.....
509432
But needs to match up with this one...

Stay tuned..

52 bf for $30 is a screaming great price. Good for you.

Boards have been in his barn for about 10 years, now...air dried and stickered...

509513
Put the Unicorn away..
509518

509514


Tablesaw's top was looking rather nasty...decided to clean up it's act..
509515
Now it even SHINES! And just in time..
509516
As the first planks have arrived in the shop.

Might start a "Build-along" thread...about what I will be making with 50+ bft of Ash 1 x 6s?
