Walking through History
Walker Woodworking is proud to be involved in the remodeling of the Newgrass Brewing Company soon to open in Shelby.
Reclaimed wood from Dover Mill – an old textile mill that once stood in Shelby, NC is now being milled for the new floors at the Newgrass Brewing Company.
Dover Mill was the workplace of many people in Shelby, NC including the grandmother, and father of Travis Walker. There is a piece of history in every board from the mill, as there will be new history made at the Newgrass Brewing Co. The reclaimed wood from the floors of Dover Mill are now being milled into the NEW floors for Newgrass Brewing Co. in Shelby, NC. The original piece of wood was 3 1/2 in thick and 8 1/2 in wide. Each Dover piece now makes 5 pieces for the floors at Newgrass.
Removing the nails from the original floors that were once located in Dover Mill of Shelby, NC.
The original floor boards are 3 1/2 inches thick by 8 1/2 inches wide.
AT the Walker Woodworking Shop, they are getting prepared to be milled.
Now made into 3 inch boards, these will soon be walked on at the Newgrass Brewing Company – Shelby, NC.
While machining the reclaimed lumber from Dover Mill, our metal detector found this in one of the beams. Some guys in the shop say it’s a 36 caliber musket ball from around the early 1800’s. It’s before they started putting tin in with the lead.
