    Shaker Clock from Chestnut

    Back last Fall, my father-in-law had a 1940's barn torn down, and gave me first pick of boards for my lumber stash. Boards pulled were all in the dry, and ranged from 8-14 inches wide, and 81/2 feet long. Beautiful stuff, once cleaned up. All are wormy chestnut. As a small token of...

    I have this rather large dry burl that I have been told is American Chestnut and I wanted to get a piece tested by a lab that has the capability to analyse and confirm. It is very old, dense (43 pounds), large(18 x 15 x 11) and looks exactly like chestnut burl I have seen in pictures, and...

    New Jigsaw, New Member, Not-New-Mom

    Apologies if this is posted twice, not sure what I'm doing. I found this site while looking for a wooden baby rattle to purchase. (Still haven't found). I recently bought a jigsaw to do a little scroll piece for a simple window seat I made. While it was really fun, I'm still afraid of...

    Chestnut Uses

    I have an opportunity to get a bunch of nice chestnut logs. Is this a nice wood to use and for what? Furniture? Does it work well and look good? Thanks!

    Pine or Chestnut?

    Please excuse me for my ignorance, for I am a mere and lowly greenhorn when it comes to decifering types of wood, especially old barn wood. Also, I apologize if this topic has already been covered in the past. I am new to "woodworkers". I have bought "wormy chestnut". I have taken down an old...

    Chestnut logs

    I have about 20 old Chestnut logs left over from assembling an old cabin on the farm (Lee County). I would like to sell the logs after re-sawing them. They are weathered so they will have to be shaved so to speak to get the undesirable material off. The remainder will be about 8"x10" and 20'...
