Thanks. I keep junk. The oak is from 1936, a fireplace mantel piece that was almost in the fire pit. My friend bought an old farmhouse that it was in. He tore it out when he remodeled. It was the next piece of wood he was going to burn. I rescued the mantel. The "Ford" oval came with a 76 Ford 4x4 van that I bought in the early eighties. The spokes are from an early 60s Harley pan-head, the first wheel hub that I took spokes out of and laced in new ones. The stain is from 82, when I redid the living room in my old house.
That nail hole is from a piece of trim that was on the mantel. I left it there for "character".
