    Default wood

    Amazing. Not one wood or timber (or lumber) collector so far!
    I seem to collect red cedar and rosewood logs, and never get the time to cut them up
    Regards

    I thought collecting wood was a foregone conclusion for nearly everyone on the forum - or is that just me I'm talking about :confused:

    Old metters ovens and wood burning stoves. Had to stop recently, the obsession was getting out of control! I restore them and use them for things like a TV/video stand, somewhere to put my fax machine and printer etc.

    Also been collecting Singer sewing machines of late too...

    Cheers

    1. $,

    2. stuff.

    Trouble is that the first collection starts looking good, then the second collection gets bigger and at the same time the first gets smaller.
    A see-saw really.
    I'd like to collect both at the same time, thats the trick I'm yet to work out.
    Cheers,
