We've been extremely busy at the mill yard lately - reorganizing and readying for more milling.
Bring it on!
Once again we have the privilege of teaming up with Spigolo on the UES. The best part about this is we are using the wood from 1538-1556 2nd Ave., only three blocks away. Reclaiming and Reusing.
26 white pine tables from 1538-1556 2nd Ave., which are being demolished to make way for a luxury building.
Tables are glued, cut, epoxied and ready for sanding, clear spray and then delivery.

We have the pleasure of working with another NYC landmark and we will be recycling the trees that are being removed.

We have a great opportunity to work with bowlerandblue on a project for the Loft stores which includes cutting, sanding and painting some tree stumps. We are also milling beams for Crown Products and putting in 8" x 16" x 15' and 10' beams to repair their floors. Two very different projects but they both get the same love.
