STARTED OFF THE DAY WITH A VISIT TO THE ReBUILDNG CENTER FOR SOME LUMBER TO BUILD THE DESK. THIS IS A GREAT SALVAGE YARD WITH A COVERED LUMBERYARD AND A GOOD SELECTION OF BOARDS PULLED FROM OLD HOUSES AROUND PORTLAND.
I WAS SEARCHING FOR SOME OLD-GROWTH STUFF, FROM BACK WHEN A 2X4 WAS REALLY TWO INCHES BY FOUR.
BEFORE THINGS GOT DUSTY, MATT McCALMONT AND I WENT FOR LUNCH.
AFTERWARDS, MATT USED A METAL DETECTOR TO FIND THE NAILS EMBEDDED IN THE WOOD.
AND I REMOVED THEM.
THEN MATT GEARED UP AND TRIMMED THE EDGES.
WE GLUED THEM TOGETHER AND LEFT THEM OVERNIGHT.
