    My wife works in the office of a high end cabinet shop. She's been bringing this scrap home to burn in the outside pit. Said I can get a whole truckload. Sure would set me up with kindling if I did. 20200609_185726.jpg

    Just watch out for anything varnished or has some other coating.

    Get what you can.

    Kindling nothing, looks like some decent hardwood in the mix....but then you wouldnt be able to use all your saws!;)
    If you have room and time take it. Maybe you can make a room from it!:rofl: :lol:

    I could also see some nice end grain cutting boards come out of there!

    That wood sure looks dry. Get a truckload and stack it inside your garage. It will burn really clean in your stove.

    buZZsaw BRAD, you have some "scraps" nice enough there to build some bird feeders or duck boxes (houses) if you wanted to do any small woodworking! Even if it ends up as kindling, still a great score. BZ!
