Wow! Never would have thought all that could come from a door. Like they say, ” They sure don’t make things like they use to.” Great save! Great use of security camera, too. LOL

How old was the door? I have a couple of old doors in my basement but am afraid that there are probably a few layers of lead paint on them.

The door I got came from a house that was built in 1987, so I would say this door was free of any lead paint. I think you can buy a test kit to test for lead paint. Do a Google search for it. Better to be safe then sorry!!

You going to put all that to good use.

You betcha Jim!!!
It’s all nice and dry and ready to go! You can’t beat old wood that’s been sitting around for a long time! I’m still not sure what I’ll make just yet. I just got the door two days ago and today I dressed it.
The wood is pretty but it I hate the smell of Fir. LOL!! I wonder if it would be good for a band saw box?

Great. Reclaim. Always worth it when you can.

I’ve been doing that with door pallets, so ya good find.

I am too am surprised how much wood came from one door. Cleaned up nice and you can’t beat good Doug fir if you ask me.

Cheers,
