A Salvagers Dream

Since Tuesday we've brought in several truckloads of southern yellow pine timbers, another load of items from the Chestnut Hill mansion, and we did walk through on several up-coming projects. 

We started our latest project today and it turned out to be a salvagers dream.  It started off as all typical salvage days do, with us removing great kitchen sinks and other standard items.  Around 8:30 we moved on to a building we had not yet walked through and discovered that it had been locked and untouched for 30+ years.  It looked like someone had just shut the door and left.  We spent half the morning just investigating and it seemed around every corner we found something more amazing.  A beautiful Eastlake cupboard, a huge oak worktable with paneled front and sides, bead board backed bookcase w/base (say that 3 times fast!), a large multi-drawer shop piece and many other items. 

Pictures and details coming soon…
