New wood forum to sell your timber and rustic goods.

[Rob D]

When people buy a mill they love milling timber. You make a couple of benches and tables and then you wonder what to do next?

 

Really you could do with selling a lot of the timber quickly straight off site or even before you have felled the tree. But how do you source buyers?

 

I've set up a new wood forum where small producers can sell their wood, rustic furniture have timber milled etc. treet| Wood Forum

 

It will not be as comprehensive as arbtalk, will prob take a long time to get established, and will have lots of teething problems. But it's free and may generate you extra cash. I expect it to take at least a year to get a good member base and regular buyers.

 

To start with I want sellers to start posting pics so that there is something for visitors to browse through. Then once there are plenty of sellers I will start putting threads up on the woodworkers forums to attract buyers.

 

Please don't be shy posting up what you've made and the planks you have to sell.

 

Constructive comments and feedback welcomed! But bear in mind this will take a lot of tweaking to get right

Course Josh. You can put 1 plank up there if you like taken from different angles. Or even a small piece of wood - whatever you like!

Excellent - the pics need to be low res and updated 1 at a time or it seems to crash

 

I'm going to get it so you can reply and include pics as well i.e. someone sees your wood and says 'looks nice but what about 3" planks' so you can continue thread with further pics.
