Texas/New Mexico Stateline | The Sept 2014 issue had a couple articles that inspired a project. They had an article about reclaiming lumber out of all the abandoned houses in Detroit, and they had a project in the back with plans to build a backyard lounger. I have this old building I am trying to figure out how much work I need to put into saving some of the lumber. The wood is pretty bad, and the roof decking probably started out as #3 pine anyway. So i ripped out a few boards and made this chair with it.
Not a bad project, just took a couple hours this afternoon literally working in the front yard. I'm thinking about making more for gifts at Christmas.
