DIY Timber Sidewalk

How To Turn Reclaimed Timber Into A Sidewalk

After completing the first 2 sections I put the sealer on it. I didn’t want it to get wet before I had a chance to seal it. The wet sealer looks really impressive. To  bad it doesn’t stay that way. It really shows off the redwood color.

Because this next section turns both right and left I had to change the pattern a little and send it in both directions.

Again using interesting angles.

I  screwed the last boards down and declared my project finished and it started snowing 3 days later. I would love to replace the remaining section along my driveway but I only have a little bit of redwood left. Maybe by next summer I will scrounge up some more. In the meantime I am happy with my results.

I also plan to replace the logs along the flower bed, they are rotting away and it needs something new. Who knows maybe I can reclaim some of the ground from the bushes and get flowers growing again.

Maybe in 20 years if this has to be replaced again I will try something different but for the moment I think its great and the price was definitely right.

Do you need a pathway? Then you might want to start collecting salvaged timber!

Thanks to Vyger for this great project!
