    Nice post! I have always dreamed of opening a WOOD recycling yard. People could bring old construction lumber in or possibly even tree stumps etc. If wood was nail embedded it could all be ground up.. metal would be siphoned off and scrapped.. rest gets pulped and make sheets of OSB. Being in the construction trade I see so much old wood being thrown out and landfilled.. could be a huge boon if someone were able to pull it off! Considering OSB sheets go for between $15 and $30 a sheet depending on thickness in my neck of the woods.. paying people to bring wood in would most certainly yield plenty of raw material!

    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!
