100 Year Old Planks

So.... I smell another project!

Here is Big E cutting a piece of 12 foot

100 year old tongue and groove pine boards 

from an old Baltimore distillery

so it fits in the truck.

Found these on the Facebook Marketplace.

Drove an hour into the boonies and rooted in a pile of boards

covered with straw in an ancient barn.

SO MUCH FUN

The woman who was selling them told us

her late husband was a woodworker.

She couldn't remember which distillery he told her the boards were from,

but she knew it was a 100 year old building in Baltimore.

We have 4 12 foot pieces

cut in half.

The plan is to build a pub height table for the kitchen

that will serve as a place to eat a quick meal,

extra counter space and

a "bar" or buffet for gatherings.

Can't wait to see it completed!
