Raw_Material.jpgThe Raw Material91 viewsThese are some of the better pieces of the oak beams I scrounged at work. They were used as spacers between about 10-12 inch sewr pipe that were being laid underground. The foreman said I could have them when they were done and I picked all I could that looked even remotely useful. Lots of cracks and checks. There's a reason this oak ended up as sewer pipe spacres versus commercial lumber, but with care you can extract some decent stock.TRexF16
