Hurricane Ike damaged our barn pretty bad, we are taking it down and putting up a pole barn. Old barn was built circa 1901. It has the sawed beams (not the hand huwn) and are put together with the wooden pegs. Barn is 45' X 72'. The hand carved stones and barn siding are already sold. If you know of anbody interested in barn beams let me know. Pat
I think I can find a work worker that would like some. I will get back to you. I remember you are not far from Louisville.
Hi What kind of wood are they? We had an old fallen down log barn, the hardwood logs we sawed up for firewood, the ceder logs we sold to someone building cross-country horse jumps. Bruce
Tree huggers will pay 4 times the price of pricy new wood to save a tree. Problem is your not in tree hugger land. Folks still burn barns around here, no one wants it as they don't search for the tree hugger buyers on the coats will will over pay and come pick it up. Then triple the price so some yuppie can have guilt free hard wood floors. Older n uglier the wood the better. Knot holes, splits n old nails a plus.
The whole barn is oak. I did have a guy wanting the beams for a lodge he is putting up. But the guy just never comes to look at the barn, so we kinda gave up on him. Pat
Thanks for the reply, A new barn realy was not in the plans, then Ike hit. New barn is going to cost close to $30,000. The insurance I had on old barn will pay around 40% of new barn. Just trying to get a few more :dollar: out of old barn. We have a daughter going to college in the fall. We know where the :dollar: will be going the next four years. Pat
I tried a few times to day and got a recording that the phone was not in service. I guess his phone lines are down from the storm. If you want PM me a number to call you.
Went to his booth and found his wife. She says thing where she lives is a mess (ice storm). Got another card with their web site on it. http://www.keglerscustomfurniture.com/ Hope this lead works out for you.
