Last weekend the wife and I decided to do some much needed cleaning out. We were getting new carpets in 2 bedrooms so it would be a good time to do it. We decided to get rid of the big old wooden bed frame in favor of a thinner metal one to save room. I took a look at the 2 wooden runners and found they were a Multi-layered ply-(8 Layers) stained wood. Well, you guys know what I thought right away. After we were done , I got the saw out and cut 24 blanks from those runners. Nice ,light, strong wood about 7/8" thick. I think they will make some nice frames. I marked out a few with different patterns and also finished one up.That bed was slept in for many years and now it will be shot with for many more!! Check the link!

Good deal Man!
You'll make enough off of selling those to pay for the new bed!

 

[BaneofSmallGame]

Way to be resourceful!

They will turn out great no doubt...as all of yours do

I too would love to know how much you plan on selling them for....

Very well done flat, looks like you hit the mother load with an old investment. That's cool, just use what you have when available.

Yes I agree with Frogman, use what you have available whenever possible. Also keep your eyes open for a good scrounge as you never know when they will pop up.

What are these going to cost? I love the lines of the finished piece atop the pile.
