Working Reclaimed Wood: A Guide For Woodworkers, Makers & Designers

by Yoav Liberman

Using reclaimed wood is appealing on many levels. It’s a sustainable method of using a resource; the cost is low or free; and the wood itself can be very interesting or of a type no longer generally available.

But using reclaimed wood offers many challenges to the uninitiated — finding appropriate wood, avoiding safety hazards, and finishing and processing reclaimed wood. How wonderful to have a guide such as Yoav Liberman, a woodworking instructor, wood artist and blogger (for our own Build-It Blog and other sites).

Working Reclaimed Wood describes the sources for material and takes the reader through the process of finding, using and finishing reclaimed wood. The book includes many examples of projects made from repurposed wood and reclaimed hardware. (Don’t forget about the hardware!) See for yourself how you can make a unique work of art by highlighting the one-of-kind properties of wood that has danced before. Let your reclaimed material inspire you!
