Reclaimed Materials

I recently got an email from a guy in Copenhagen who had just finished up his new garage space. Interestingly, he focused on using old/aged materials in the construction of his benches, shelving units, and other items in an effort to give his new space and old feeling. From the limited photography he has posted on his blog, it looks like the effort really paid off.

Check it out.

In any case, this got me thinking… Who else out there has tried using reclaimed material in the construction of their shop environments? Post pics…
