The Scaff Shop News and Info

I had the idea to write this blog before I actually realised that I had recently been sent in these excellent customer photos. In fact, I wanted to write a blog showing off how versatile our shelves can be, but my first thought was how I would only want to show photos of our own shelves, for which I didn't have any new ones to hanmd. Cue a quick search through our recent customer feedback (where customers can add their own photos) and look what I came across.

There are so many things to enjoy about working with and supplying wood to our lovely customers, but one of the best parts is seeing the awesome things that they create! We love it when customers send us a photo of their project and are always incredibly impressed at the things that are made, often just by hobbyist woodworkers or DIYers.

The Scaff Shop started about a year and a half ago now, and little did we know quite how much demand there would be for reclaimed scaffold boards. We held out at our little unit on Commerce Park for as long as we could, but we've finally outgrown it.

We've turned a 2ft length of reclaimed scaffold board in to something even more characterful by carefully shaping it and pairing it with several different types of handle to make the ultimate charcuterie-style serving board.

Lovely scaffold board + good quality brackets = An awesome shelf! We love scaffold board shelves. And what turns a scaffold board in to an awesome shelf? A good quality bracket. Whether you're buying them to match a board you've bought from us, or to fit a shelf made from something other than a scaffold board (I'm told these do exist...although I find it hard to accept), brackets are the functional cherry on the cake and can transform your board in to a stunning shelf. Our most most popular brackets are the wonderfully industrial and classic "hanging" or "propped" brackets...

We may not yet be on the A-list, but we did make it on to the cover of our local magazine, The List, which in our opinion is a far more desirable list to be a part of. A well cherished local publication, The List is the ultimate guide to our incredible town of Frome.
