The Reclaimed Woodworker

By Chris Gleason

With inspiring photos and easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions, The Reclaimed Woodworker features 21 projects that transform recycled lumber into well-built, stylish furniture and home décor items. Each project, from the popular sliding barn door to vintage chairs and bookcases, is designed to use upcycled materials without sacrificing looks or tried-and-true woodworking techniques. Best of all, once you start using reclaimed wood, you’ll discover a beautiful, cost-saving alternative to traditionally sourced lumber. The Reclaimed Woodworker is not only a how-to book, it’s a celebration of reclaimed wood and the many creative ways it can bring charm and character to the home.
