I have been called a scrounger, dumpster-diver , and more! But I always find something great in the dumpsters near where I live. 
I feel I am recycling many things that would otherwise end up buried in the local landfill. And I also get free stuff for future projects that would otherwise cost me dearly at the local stores.  My only problem is storing it all for the day I will need it!

I was lucky to stumble upon a pile of oak stair steps that a local custom floor and stair making company discarded! I took it all! Oak is beautiful , tough and long lasting wood. You can use any wood too! Except balsa, its too light, but hey its your choice. Thick 1" foam could work too, I'll have to try it.
