    Yeah, I hate waste. It’s kinda how society geared bc they want to sell their trash before giving it away & once it is passed the items hold period they completely destroy it so no one can salvage it.

    But anyway. I Get my wood from an Amish sawmill, where I’ll request fragments or sapboards- plain old pieces of trash & make small items. That actually is appropriated to help clean up debris & the owner then doesn’t mind giving me deals then. I paid $1.85² ft of walnut $1² ft of pine, $1.15² ft of locust
