100+ YO Redwood lap siding (Alameda West End)
This came off 2 gable end-walls (about 18' at base). I think this would be excellent project wood or maybe a great "barnwood" type of look. I don't know if there is enough to side anthing very large. I think it is original to house (c. 1912). You can still see saw marks in the wood. I retained the old siding on the very front/back of my house because it is just so cool. It is painted with heaps of peeling old white paint and some caulking. Some green paint underneath, I think. Some nails remain too, I suspect, but not horrifically so. For the right person with the right skills and resources (a planer maybe?) and right project, this could be an absolute gold mine...all for free! MUST TAKE ALL. Advise that person picking this up have a pickup or large van, or a roof rack with skills to tie it up properly. Some of these pieces are pretty long (set. 12+ feet) while others are very short (as I said, this formed a gable wall).

Beautiful Aluminum Chaise Loungers (Alameda West End)
2 Aluminum chaise lounges- stacking black anodized aluminum adjustable-back (also shown stacked). They need new webbing and clean-up, but since they are aluminum, cannot rust. As far as I can tell, the frames are completely straight and sound (no bends or breaks). Very high quality chaises that need some love to be ready just in-time for relaxing in the great Bay Area Spring and Summer!
