My name is Joe and I work at M. Fine Lumber Co. in Brooklyn. I just wanted to inform you that we have free lumber scraps if anyone is interested its all from torn down NYC buildings. We are in the process of downsizing and really don’t want to trash it or chip it up. That wouldn’t be the green thing to do. The company has been around for 75 years and has salvaged more then 1,000,000 board feet off lumber. Maybe you can help us out. Call me M-F 7-5 at 718-381-5200.
