Hi, I have been using pine from my local diy store for my kitchen projects. But now I want to put together a chest to use like a coffee table in the living room. They seem quite fashionable at the moment. I've seen some nice one's in an antique type shop made from reclaimed oak. I can't find any reclaimed wood at all in my area.
At a wood yard close to where I live there were 8x1 pieces of locally produced spruce. The wood is kiln dried and is stored outside mainly for external use. I was wondering if I dried out some pieces for a few weeks, and did a bit of sanding, do you think this would be suitable for my diy chest?
