You might see prices like this in the upcoming liquidation sales at the largest warehouses of their kind in Texas. After decades in mothballs, collections of hard-to-find lumber, windows, and doors, as well as stunning trim, hardware, and glass, are nearly all going to be sold by July 4th, when the second warehouse sale comes to its climax and ends.
If I could find the wood to build such doors and have a $5-10 profit margin each, what would the labor cost be? On this day of 1910, one could work 6 – 10 to 12-hour days a week every week, rarely a vacation, and only a few holidays. The dollar bought a day’s work from a man who was skilled, but less if not.
If the parts are here to create quality, it is clear that true craftsmen and artists will use them if they can afford them. Now, for a brief moment, the most amazing stuff ever collected is being made available to the public to build many tiny houses across the USA. Come with the trailer, a list, and a plan to carry stuff off to the houses again.
What does that translate into for a modern house in 2026? $2,000-$3,000 sounds like a lot, but it buys imported, modern copies that do not last a lifetime. Why not get the real, good stuff at the liquidation sale? Remodel your classic Sears cottage with classic parts or build a house from scratch with them.
Otherwise, you can find lower-quality plastic or veneer at big-box stores that lack longevity, are imported, outgas, and are likely built to last for 15 years or less. That is what the system offers at big-box stores and is used to build houses today.
Who knows? On the last day of the sale in Gonzales, Texas, Memorial Day Weekend could be the time to see some doors, window sashes, and more go for prices no one has seen in at least 50 years.
Incredible prices for houses, big and small, but you can still get what you need at incredibly low prices at the upcoming sale. True, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, with designs so easy to use and see results with the same windows, doors, and parts that were of superb quality back in the day of Quality in American products.
One need not use the older designs, but the windows and doors will work fine for any sort of modern art home you could build; you can use these parts to make it last a lifetime for you, too.
Look at the doors and windows, at the trim, and even more, the quality of the hardware, and the other things you see are still on houses used today. It’s been over a hundred years since they were shipped and built by men and women, all communities that worked together to become towns with homes for one and all.
You will never see more for sale than this liquidation of the two warehouses, which will take two months to complete. People will have the chance to get the most in the first sales at the College St. warehouse as they will when the sales move out to the location at 333 Salvage Way where hardware, stained glass, and other more precious things will be sold along with the tools, fasteners, and other things necessary to create a couple of Pure Salvage Outposts in other places to continue building with parts lfrom here and more that will come if you do.
I will be assembling a few packages of windows and doors that will allow people to recreate the houses shown in the pictures above. This is the chance for many to benefit and grow their dreams into real houses. I hope you will join us for one of the weekends and have a chance to win one of the door-and-window packages that will be a door prize for participants in the biggest Salvage & Architectural Antiques liquidation sales ever.
Imagine how easy it was to get a loan for a package then.
If you fill one out and want a loan for a year, up to five years on a package of materials, not as big as these were, but good to help you get your home built for sure, let me know by sending it to us at Darbypsl@gmail.com as we may offer a few loan packages if good people who can do that apply.

I have not found a way to post a video on this website, but I can surely link to it on YouTube, also known as Tiny Texas Houses.
What would you create if you were to have a choice.?
Videos about the Liquidation Sales, as well as some opportunities for tours, before big sale buys, and a chance to open a Pure Salvage Outpost with some of the vast resources that will be parted out over the next few months.
Please consider sharing and viewing if you have any interest in building a home from All-American parts and pieces, such as windows, doors, and trim, from a time when our ancestors had great virgin resources that created the best of homes. Sustainable living means using the best of our past, still good for a hundred more years of life as a home, rather than buying new stuff that will not last a decade.
Buy a home for life instead of giving your life for a home that dissolves and becomes a maintenance nightmare. Buyers should always beware of modern construction and learn before they burn away their health. That is not a path that you can return from easily once done. Your home is your castle, not a coffin if you buy the right one.
Hope to see you get the parts and pieces to create a community of tiny and small houses that work together to create a homestead instead of a McMansion or two, and pave the rest or put grass on the rest of the land.
Blessings to your Memorial Day celebrations, perhaps aggregations of the materials that respect the work of the ancestors who supported the boys in the war by working in the places these parts were being built between and during the World Wars for the Veterans Home loans of the times. Yes, time repeats with an amazing accuracy that can not be ignored. Never forget or throw away the best parts of our past that will take us to a better future.
At 70 I have seen what hard living does to age the body, and the path to getting #Youthful naturally again. Now I pray the kids who see will do it earlier instead of always getting jabs for cures.
Our fascia carries electricity that you can understand and see when structural water forms, expands, and becomes human energy that you can feel come from within. Where does that command of power over light traveling down circuitry so fine that it went relatively unnoticed for decades come from? It is now known as an organ that is vital to the functioning of our body. It is a critical part of what enables the 70% water in the muscle to lift great weight or do great things. #Youthing hinges on understanding some of the physics behind the shape you take, the body you form as you age with the intention of staying #Youthful along the way.
It is not H2O as you see coming from the tap or bottled water. Blood is made of a different version of structural water that can be activated from gel to near solid with a current provided by the Source of Power. Is that the heart, brain, or a Spiritual force inside the body? Where does the command come to go from gelatinous to hard come from?
Most believe is the water they perceive when they see what they think is blood in you or me. Mii, on the other hand, the one inside the skin that guides the flesh and H3O2, called our blood, that carries sunlight to our body, empowers it with form through the mitochondria that carry the energy with Melatonin for motion and for joy.
ATP creates the energy, but the fascia is the network that links us up, though many can not see, but feel what it emanates, our aura once it’s Frii. Then it reaches far beyond the limits most perceive and lets our prayers be answered when Wii pray for others to be freed. Wii synchronize the neurons and the synapses to make sure that Wii are awakened when our promised time comes. What do you see in your mind’s eye or the mirror where you spy who you appear to be, the “me” that others think they see?
You are only that shape for a time, changing, a new body every 7 years, better every cycle if you treat your vessel right. In your mind’s eye, you can plan and shape your body with time and exercise, yes, to create a healthy shape and size. Wii determine what Wii can be if Wii are Frii, to be Mii when I’m awake, body and Spirit in One shell. Not the cartilage or brain alone, but the body as a salt-water battery with the energy it stores, muscles to move blood, and a vortex of the heart to hold the power of the universe, for whatever life is worth. Treat thy vessel as the gift that heals quite naturally by using the Water of Life and keeping our minds free.
How do Wii keep our balance or win it back once it is gone? By practicing what you can not do so as to learn how, in the end, when you get to see the results that you never thought you had a hope would someday be Mii.
Darby
Don’t give up the power to individuate, to express the Spirit that resides within the bones and through the flesh. Human energy can be so powerful and true if Wii use it for the missions that Wii came to life now to ensure. Use your powers and the timing, the chance to see and learn, so that when your turn to be a hero comes, you will be ready, strong, and sure. Use the Chi, the Prana, the Source Power drawn from Mother Earth, combined with the charges in the air, and you can soon aid a world in grief. Now is the time to rise and aid your fellow human beings, as well as all the other beings that will soon be seeking healthy food.
If grounded, able to sense how the planet comes to change, and soon will provide energy that changes one and all. Some who sense the Schumann frequencies, who also feel the charge from the sunburst and the filaments that are rushing to us in these days. The comet that is passing by will bring to Light so many ties to the past and the future that must come, but the victory will surprise more than some, but not those with faith and who know the power of One. It doesn’t take much to change, but time is running faster now.
At 49, I could not see what lay ahead for Mii. I thought I could do nearly anything, but soon after, I learned it’s our destiny that brings us change, and nothing Wii can do will stop it from coming when it should. How do Wii transition from each phase of our lives except by jetisoning anchors that will hold us back from living a full life? What dreams Wii have as children can be meant to come true when Wii grow up to see there was a fate for which Wii had to leave our past behind. Savor the dayz. Change comes as it was planned and with faith Wii come to understand the reasons why Wii suffer yet sustain, stronger for what follows in our lives.
My best fun came while playing in the dirt after 63 years old. Make an impression that few can easily erase… and thus instructed, so I did! You see what happened when Darby went in Sany and understand what 3,000 hours in the cab of big boy toys can do, solo. Fun times during the transition, the time in my cocoon, there I got to metamorphose, fly out fully renewed for another life and cycle, flying high into the clouds. None of this is possible, a fantasy indeed, but one that I enjoy living as I too get to see what is possible. Who knew?
None of what I dreamt of happened, but the transformation and watching wildlife return, beavers, otters, fish, birds, turtles, and so much more all the way up to the Red Wolf, rare as it is, and big cats that pass through. Life is dependent on water, sunshine, and a little bit of help, it becomes a paradise without man to interfer after that.
So I would advise you to get moving and find many ways to practice #Youthing while you are young, instead of waiting half a century. I started at 55, but by 58, I had made a few videos showing how to do it on a mat. Hope it works for you. Don’t try to do it all on the first day cause what you see saved my broken body and brought a pain-free life to Mii. Not the me I grew up with, crippled from youth to 55.
Darby is practicing Wii Gong at 62, a form of working out the body, mind, and more, gaining balance and the sight to see the energy I did not know could be in Mii. I was truly Frii, powered by the Wubtron, a word for the “I” within that powers and then operates the body that I am in. Who knew this could be possible when I was just a kid? No one showed or told Mii so I did not find the path to this fitness without much effort once Wii find our center and our bliss.
That does not mean Wii are not humans, Beings that still have flaws, but our perspective is the key to going forth when Wii hear the call and fulfill the great missions that Wii came to live and breathe. Life is what you make it when you choose to finally be the Being that God meant for you when conceived of in a plan that is greater than the ability to be seen by any man.
At 70, I, too, need to practice a few days a week again, as I seem to have gotten too attached to this dang screen I am standing in front of somehow. I nearly have my workout space set up with Pink Granite for the floor, and a view of the sunrise and the shade at sunset, except on some special days. Maybe, by the pond and crystals, I can film and share the ways that Wii can master our body and recover, best of all, to never suffer long because you can heal so fast for life. Please let Mii know if you decide to try some of the techniques I will soon be practicing for extending this #youthing period for as long as I can.
Dropping my anchor, my business, my things, so that I can move on forward with my writing again. Savor the dayz kids, those under 50 I mean, for the things you may see if you resist the jabs and revolt is the strangest of worlds that very few thought could come true. Soon, it will be apparent that there is so much to do to expose the dangers and then haul the criminals into tribunals that ensure they are wiped out.
Profiting from wars and killing millions for the land, nothing that is going on should be allowed to continue; my friends and I are about to make it clear that this must come to an end. Prayers to those who see the problems and stop them before they rise to obliterate all the things so great about the rest of our world. Let us try to form peaceful communities by using the best of our American past, both human energy and resources that are trapped in the structures all around people who live in parts that have materials ready to be harvested, jobs, houses to be built, without global corporations or banks. Freedom means being Frii, Wii, all the “I”s that see what must happen to be healthy, stay youthful, and free to the best you can be, naturally.
Yes! Clearing out the entire warehouse at 1020 North College, in Gonzales, Texas. See it on Google Earth, it is that big.
The time: Three main weekends: May, 9-10, then again, but bigger for May 16-18th, & finally over 2026 Memorial Day Weekend to pack it away forever.
Yes, this marks the end of an era, a legend, a myth, someday when the internet erases it from memory if they get to own the Wayback Machine. Come to the sale and carry on the ethos of building sustainably with salvaged treasures. These will never be built again.
No imports. No plastic. NO vinyl. All American-made by our ancestors in an age of many resources and lumber barons all around, with enslaved conscripted laborers who could not earn a living wage.
This is a sampling of the portions that will be open to the public for the first sale.
Now is a chance to honor and respect their efforts to create a source of what it takes to build import-free homes that last for centuries, not just decades. Come, see, and buy at incredibly low prices compared to big-box stores, but get much more.
Making Memories for someone you love. That will be when people can carry away the parts they need to build tiny, small, or medium-sized homes, just like you would once see coming on the trains. These parts were for kit houses from Sears and Roebuck, delivered in pre-cut packages for assembly.
The windows, doors, and so much more are still incredibly strong, sustainable to the highest degree, and can be reused to rebuild today.
Nothing says you have to make your parts look like the originals…
Nothing imported, no trees cut, no glass made to create a house. This is what I offered and taught many who still use the salvage all around to form houses they can use. Why not come with family to load the windows and the doors? Perhaps some trim, and even floors, to build in an hour or two of loading stuff into trailers to take with you?
THIS WILL BE THE BIGGEST SALE THAT ANYONE WILL EVER DO, WHERE YOU CAN BUY ALL AMERICAN-MADE AND KNOW IT WILL LAST AS LONG AS YOU.
For appointments or more information, email Bwk@tinytexashouses.com or Darbypsl@gmail.com.
May 9th-10th for preview and windows and doors by the hundreds, plus sets with enough to build more than 60 houses if you choose to use salvage. Come prepared to work with gloves and know there will be dust about. Prepare to see what few ever do and know it will soon all be gone, so now is the time to choose.
What are you seeking to build a home, two bedrooms, like the thirties or the later years, shown in the catalogs of the times that were known for the 100,000 houses that they sent nearly all around. If you had a railroad near your town, I would bet these models can be found, and if you want to remodel one and put back in the original windows and doors, come for more. We got it.
Entire sets for a house are stacked and have not moved or been ransacked. They are dry and could be glazed and painted to last for a lifetime without plastics drying out and breaking. This is what has lasted for centuries: you’ll see if you take care of them, and you find they will take care of you.
You will even find some new old stock in the windows and the trim. There are lots of things you will not find, I know, much without paint and ready to roll. Those who come first see the most and get the chance to skim the cream, perhaps a toast to the early bird who gets the worm, but please, then share and boast. It will be the best buys of your life and perhaps what you need at last. For a few thousand dollars, you might find all you need to put between the studs to create the coolest house that anyone has seen. Why not?
Some ask why I am finally cutting the rope to this anchor, and I can only say that what I found at 70, #Youthing meant I had to stay away from stress like the 80-hour weeks it took to stash all of this stuff. Decades pass, and then Wii learn to value what Wii have, our body, Spirit, mind, all healthy has become my goal, you see. I found something I never knew, and thus I want to give you a path to follow if you wish to see the future that so many will see once they change their views. I hope this will help others get the parts they need to build healthy homes and a tight-knit community that comes from people caring about their unity.
Our Chi, Prana, Energy of Spirit that flows through us is more important than what some people sell it for, life-force indebted and thus bound by the rules of the Matrix. I choose to check out of that game of merchants and taxes, employees, and rules.
Wii are One in motion, and I want to help bring the inspiration and the notion that you can build a house for nearly free if the local Salvage Outpost provides the help that comes for free. I have stashed and saved these parts for a day when some of Darby’s dreams come into play.
Please share the story, just a fantasy of what could happen if Wii all agree to help. Pure Salvage Outposts as local co-ops, I think, will be the path to new equality in the way Wii live most in homes these days. Yes, a unique set of words, but the meaning goes beyond the normal to create solutions all around.
