almost 10 years agoLooks good! I was wondering whether salvaged wood is same as reclaimed wood.. searched around - on woodtechgreen.com > "Salvaged wood typically comes from trees that are cut for highway or building construction, orchard replanting or safety issues. Wood can also be salvaged from trees damaged due to weather or that have died while still standing. Salvaged wood also originates from “sinker logs.” These are trees that were harvested years ago, but then sank in cold water while being floated in rivers or lakes to a sawmill. Salvaged wood can originate all over the world." Would you agree? Or there are other definitions around?

almost 10 years agoI guess I look at 'salvaged' wood as wood that was saved from being thrown into landfills or burned, etc.
