Title: More weird wood
Post by: Reeves on July 11, 2010, 04:22:20 PM
In this first picture the log one the left had been bent/broken when young. It then grew in a circle and up.
The rest just grew weird.

Plan for now is to store in my pole barn and keep on collecting. When I re-build the front deck and build a back deck, this weird wood will be used for the up-rights and railing.
The smaller diameter logs will be used as hand rails for the stairs up to the decks.

On each side of the stairs to the deck, I'll excavate an area about 6' wide & to the end of the deck. place treated 2x4s and a barrier to prevent weeds. Place the white (or grey) crushed landscape rock and put stuff like this on the rock. Old Horse drawn plow.
