When my in-laws moved we tried the same thing - no takers.

And it was too expensive to hire movers just to take it to the junk yard. I spent an afternoon down in the basement with a saw, sledge and crowbar tearing it down into pieces we could carry upstairs and out to my truck.

Ok...I’m officially a dummy... never even thought about looking for alternative uses on the Internet. I had considered using one as an armoire, but the examples at those links are brilliant.

Used, old-style Bob Timberlake furniture is expensive to this day (the 833 series). Timberlake switched manufacturers and the new stuff, I don’t like. But there’s a market for the old used stuff thru Craig’s list, etc. A lot of it was solid cherry. Dining room, bedroom furniture, etc is still pricy. But you can pick up the entertainment centers for a few hundred dollars. Some precision dismantling would provide the base and a good bit of cherry for projects at those links.

Thank you for the inspiration!

Recently,doing a song for a movie, it took three singers to cover the ranges Dimash covers in order to show him what they wanted.

There's been many analysis's done on his vocal range, style and what he does with his voice. These also are interesting. BTW He does a lot of his music himself. ...sings in 7 languages and plays numerous instruments.

The lung ‘power’ and ability to go from register to register with such ease and control of breathing comes from swimming work outs he's meticulous about. He's also very disciplined and focused on his work before and after his performances Dedicated entirely to his art..and his audiences approval.

I find him an interesting character as well.. though very successful now he retains a polite and humble persona heard and seen in his interviews. Thank you for listening to the links and offering your comment. Not everyone can appreciate this type of talent, esepcially here in the states.
