Synopsis

Learn how to turn trash into treasure with this updated edition of Building with Secondhand Stuff—filled with clever tips, ingenious projects, and step-by-step photo instructions.

Secondhand building materials—salvaged wood, metal, stone, glass, fixtures, and architectural accents—are not only beautiful and full of character but cost less money and are a good choice for the environment. Building with Secondhand Stuff, 2nd Edition shows you how to identify materials that can be salvaged efficiently and gives you easy-to-follow instructions on how to build cool things with what you find.

With new projects, including a pallet coffee table, door-backed kitchen island, and a reclaimed window greenhouse, this hands-on, do-it-yourself guide shows you how to:
 

• Mill and install tongue-and-groove reclaimed plank flooring
• Hang a reclaimed door in an existing jamb
• Install a reclaimed tin backsplash
• Build a granite-slab kitchen island
• Build an accent doorknob coat rack
• And much more

Turn high-quality salvaged materials into clever, useful things for your home.
