Wood related scrounges without wood

2x6 & 5/4x6 lumber scrounged today. To be utilized in a future rack build. Same source as post #325.

 

I was at the local recycling center this morning. Spied a rusty old tool box next to the metal dumpster. Well this inquiring hoarder had to open and check. Walla, rusty splitting wedge. Glad I checked. I don't sledge and wedge that often any more, but I have a tendency to loose things like this.

 

Nice score. Looks like one of the more slender wedges that starts easily!

 

Yes. I have one like it...somewhere. Looks like someone used it a bit as the mushrooming was ground off.
It will stay in back of the truck for for when I need it along with the other handled firewooding tools. I will use a steel wedge when I fell a tree from time to time.

 

Paint it bright yellow, or orange, or some colour that makes it catch your eye.

 

That sure looks like wood to me.

Do I not understand the thread's title?

Trip to the dump this morning to get rid of some scrap wood and an old door from a job. Spotted a couple 12' long PT 2x10's that i couldnt pass up. Luckily outside of the dumpster as it was full.
Passed this just a few houses down from wood storage later. Required my turning around as I thought I was seeing things. Stainless steel chimney cap. Never used. Top is nearly 2'x 3'. Did a little research and its probably $200 new.

 

Yesterday from my oak score. 6x6 PT timbers. 3'+ These will make good sleepers for a new half cord log rack build I have planned. and yes MikeInMa I realize its wood!
