All of which is a long-winded lead up to the recycling job to cap all others: Bernard Greatrix’s use of mahogany window frames to make a couple of bedside cabinets. Who can beat that? Upcycling would have been a long way from Alan Willey’s mind when he devised his butterfly-inspired drop-leaf table, but Phil Skinner writes of the joys of scrap when he makes a marking gauge and a mallet. For as Michael Huntley reminds us in his post & rail lesson, wood is a precious resource that must be used wisely.
