yeah what tom said

exact same 2 questions that came into my head. I had visions for a second of how some guys out this way will collect old wood pallets and repurpose them into different things. Nice job.

Win, win.:thumbsup:

That would be nice if she did. As far as the tobacco sticks i get them from farmers who don't raise tobacco anymore. the sticks were used to hang tobacco up in the barn to cure for it was sold. Some these stick range from 60+yrs old and up.

Projects for the WIFE? Well, first she needs to change the oil in all the rigs, do a full wash and detail on them. Make sure the ice chest next to my outdoor recliner is full of beer while I supervise her. Of course I'll need lunch and she'll need to move my recliner over by the woodpile so I can keep an eye on her while she finishes splitting and stacking a couple cords. Meantime I'll be working hard on figuring out what I want for dinner. :thumbsup:
