How to use recycled materials for your woodworking projects

From trash to treasure

After many requests from you guys about adding more eco-friendly projects, we launched a new corner in the newsletter:

“From trash to treasure”

Let’s dive into a topic that has become increasingly vital - sustainable woodworking.

It's no secret that our love for woodworking comes at a cost to our environment.

But the good news is, we can make a change, no matter how small.

Have you ever thought about using ethically sourced wood or finding ways to reduce waste in your projects?

And have you considered using eco-friendly finishes, such as beeswax, instead of harmful chemicals?

By taking these small steps, we can all contribute to the bigger picture and make a positive impact on our environment.

It's up to us to create a better world for the future, and we have the power to start with the materials we use in our projects.

So, let's come together and make sustainability a priority in our woodworking community.
