Every section of this railing was standing dead Oak, Locust, Maple, or Pine. The home Owner wanted "Rustic" and this is what we came up with.

He definitely got what he wanted.

Hmmmmm, that hand rail looks like a lot of splinters just waiting to happen![]()
Very cool. How long will that material last for them?

Awesome pics! I am currently in the process of building a custom home. Just bought the land last month and going over house plans and layouts now.
The trees are dead from the Aspen fire 9+ years ago, and I'd rather use this wood than anything I could get from a yard. Basically the best wood I've worked with. Rotten wood usually comes from bad drainage and or neglect, so hopefully this will last years to come. As far as splinters, the natural aging of hardwood has created a texture that is super smooth tho the touch. I've gotten more metal splinters from cuttin/welding the posts than any of the wood work. I'll take some pics and post em up this evening...

Last time we took a cruise up the Lemmon we were amazed at the "new cabins" This one will fit right in,![]()
