Updating of this site!!
I decided that despite the lack of anything to write, that I’d write.
In the near future I’m going to be starting a section explaining the wood types that I will be using for my special one off pieces. These pieces will be made using a combination of wood, metal and whatever else I happen to incorporate. They will all have one thing in common though and that will be the wood that I use. This wood will be stuff that my Father, Mother, Sister, Brother, I and several of my Fathers friends rescued from destruction in the northern tip of North Key Largo, Florida. Most of the areas this wood was rescued from is now the plush green golf courses of a well known exclusive community. I say rescued because none of the wood was green when cut. It was all seasoned and waiting removal from the then hardwood hammock. These pieces all had died years earlier, maybe due to hurricane floods or other natural phenomena. The stuff that wasn’t rescued was pushed into great big piles and burned by the contractors clearing the land. Most pieces rescued are solid heartwood.
Anyway enough for now.
I hope you check back and that I have something posted.
Thanks for checking in,
Cheers,
Paul
