Mounting a barnwood beam

[jrmckins]

About a month ago I asked where I could find a barnwood beam. I ended up using The Barn Side of a Broad in Garner. Debbie was great and found me a fantastic beam. I replaced my old mantel with it this weekend and wrote up a how-to. Check it out: Mounting a floating barn beam mantel

Great write-up! That is exactly how I mounted my walnut mantle several years ago. Now that you have directions, I can show people your post when they ask how I did it!

Excellent! That's why I write it up!
