My brother is a woodworker. He makes cabinets and other things similar and he does some scrolling, but he doesn't do any turning and doesn't have any interest in it.
Anyway, he read an ad for a cabinet business that is downsizing and was selling various stuff from tools, machines, wood and finished cabinets. So, he figured he would go see what they had since the prices were intriguing. He hoped to pick up some nice wood and maybe a few tools.
He called me and asked if I would like to come and see what he got for a steal of a deal. When he took me to his huge shop, I saw a bunch of wood, a shaper machine, and a couple of cabinets. Pretty nice haul, but he pointed to the corner and there was a big stack (about 5'-6' tall) of sheets. I asked him what it was and he said it's Corian used to make counter tops. There is over 2 tons of the stuff in a lot of different colors and patterns.
I found a very nice blue piece and he said he will make a couple of end tables for us with it. But he also gave me a box of small pieces and wanted me to use them for pens. So I might try making some pens that look like stone.
He is always finding good deals.
