I have been tearing down an old shed on my property. I have salvaged about 30 8ft boards out of it so far. I started burning a lot of the scrap and picking the nails out with my big magnet. There are still some nice boards left that I have not got to yet. They are probably 100 years or older and heart pine. My neighbor said his grandfather built it back in the 30's with wood from another existing barn. I am just wondering if I should keep de-nailiing and keeping the decent boards or just burn it all up. I am getting kind of tired of fooling with it and burning the rest of it would take care of it fast. I guess I am kind of a pack-rat with this kind of thing. I am trying to justify with myself that I will eventually used the salvaged boards for other projects.
What would some of you do in this situation? Keep as many boards as possible or burn it up and be done?
