Recycled Bench

This bench was made from 100% recycled wood and being green at Wooden Treasures is my main objective. The trees it was made from were bulldozed down to clear room for a new building on CNM property. Two of the trees that would have been incinerated were air dried for over 1.5 years. After the moisture content was below 15% the tree trunks were tilled down and sized. This piece contains over 250 parts and weighs ½ ton.  The corners are solid square logs wrapped in a milled wood that has been angled and planed.  It has a marine grade finish. This is so it can stand up to the NM sun and heat.  This piece of art is on display at The Library on CNMs main campus.

Porch Repairs

This repair job took one week.  All the rails, styles, and faces were severally rotted. This job detailed complete demolition and rebuild. Pressure treated wood was used as well as a primer coat in between each layer of wood as well as priming all knots.
