Reclaimed lumber from the Cape Fear River

These pens are made from pine slavaged from the bottom of the Cape Fear. Old Growth Riverwood, in Wilmington, pulls these logs up, runs them through the sawmill and kiln, and makes flooring and all sorts of unique furniture. I found them while we were on vacation and got a box full of scraps for pens. It is beautiful wood, and in great shape considering the time in the water.

Nice group of pens there. The wood is great with a tight grain. I think I have a box of it around in the shop that I haven't gotten to yet. After seeing your pens, I may need to start looking for that box.

Very nice. You guys know that Anchor Hardwood sells dried reclaimed Cape Fear wood. Check them out.
