Timbers & Tank-Shed


Trees waiting to be milled. Most are white pines and tulip poplars. A few oaks and hickories will be used as well. This is one of two piles of timbers. Around 40 usable trees have been felled so far. All wood will be treated with sodium borate (Borax) to prevent bugs from entering and causing damage. The white tarp in the background is covering 10, 260 gallon tanks which were used to import olive oil from Alava, Euskadi (Spain). They are now being used to form a shed, covered by a billboard tarp (24' x 40') http://www.billboardtarps.com/ which once advertized a Mexican Mariachi Band. It now houses a ton of tools and supplies and has a 2600 gallon water capacity!
