It's kind of weird to call it "reclaimed", which I consider wood left over
after a project. Taking a entire building apart and building a new one just
because you want the old wood isn't my definition of "reclaimed", but
using that term is a great way to get a higher price.
"The wood I want to use for your project was reclaimed when they tore
down some tobacco drying sheds in Massachusetts."
It's not really a lie, but it does stretch the truth a bit.
And then there is the option to rip the planks in half and
laminate the resulting thin planks to a substrate, and use them for
"ambiance". The "old look" coffee shops etc.
