I made a ramp to my bunny's cage so he can enter and exit whenever he feels like it. I just tied it up to the cage with a wire. This is my super cool story regarding old decks. Like, share and subscribe.

my buddy has been on one using old skate decks. tables, baseball bats, coffee tampers, floating planters, etc.

the latest thing he's done are canoe paddles.

Mine go in the recycling bin, yes.

Are they really recyclable though? All those glues and other toxic adhesives

I put them in the recycling bin unless it's a deck I really liked.  My parents threw out 30 or so decks I had in our garage when I went to college.  I was so bummed.  Some true gems in there.  Powell Hawk and Mountain, multiple Hensley's and Barbier's, lots of OG old World/Blind, Alien, and New Deal decks.

Here's his messy lair. I'm too lazy to come up with something better, but if it works...

i have been buying 8.5s and up, skating them down to the bone and then taking a jigsaw to them and shaping them into 8s and under and skating them. i then take the scraps and drive nails into them and hang tools. its like getting 2 boards for the price of 1 and having the smug self satisfaction of recycling.
