    Few years back I tore up the old tongue and grove decking from our front veranda, house was built in the early 1900's. Long story short is that decking material was cut from first growth Douglas fir with a very tight knot free grain.



    Rather than turn it into kindling, installed a narrow kerf saw blade into the table saw and cut every usable stick into arrow blanks, then listed them on ebay.

    Opportunity knocks at my door once again, the cedar baseboards and trim molding from this old house that i have been stripping of its treasures. Some of the boards are not suitable from picture frame material, these i will cut into arrow blanks.

    I do not round the blanks, just sell the square blanks for the archery enthusiast who has the desire to make his/her own arrows.

    Last time i was there I noticed the toiler sitting in the field, I'll have the remember to go over and get the manufactures name from it. I should be so lucky to find this one that sold recently for $350.00

    yea people collect this ****.
