    Been wanting to make something to stack all my BL on. (about two cords worth)
    Cleared an area at my friends. Had to fell a small cherry and get the stump out.
    Couple cull 16' PT 4x4's and a some PT 2x6 that ive had hanging around for way too long. Ran out of time and batteries died for cordless impact driver. Maybe finish tomorrow. Did some stacking.

    Plan is to stack 4x4x16" for two cords but i may go 5' high.
    Next pics of all dead locust to be moved. I stacked the greener stuff first. A couple had bark starting to loosen up. Man is that some stinky wood...PU! IMG_2255.JPG IMG_2256.JPG Hard pressed for space at my friends. Still have more locust to bring in. Ill update thread

    Lol. Earworm.

    TBH I don't care for AC/DC. :whistle:

    My first concert was Joan Jett. " I hate myself for cutting you". In my head now for any yard tree I have to cut.

    :rofl: :lol:

    That’s Brad. Start to stack before you finish the rack. :thumbs:
    Your motivation is insane.
    Back in the day when I was laying and Thunderstruck came on I’d go into hyper warp speed. Not much different behind the wheel.

    Looks great. Give us more details as you build, if you modify it at all. Nice work!

    damm, buZZsaw BRAD. I'm so disappointed with you.

    Given the topics of your other punny thread titles, I figured I'd open this thread to see that you made a rack out of cow bones.

    :cool:

    Concerts... Ah yes, the good old days... Nostalgia returns...

    Been to many over the years. Cleveland stadium "World Series of Rock" were classic all day parties. AC/DC several times... Stones, Molly Hatchet, Seger, Mott the Hoople, Fleetwood Mac, Judas Priest, ZZ Top, Eddie Money, Van Halen, I could go on for days... LOL Great memories.

    And of course we must not forget Jackal... The Lumberjack

    My cheapest was $9 for Judas Priest with Iron Maiden in 1982 at the New Haven Coliseum which no longer exists.
    Ms. buZZsaw and I were supposed to see a Pink Floyd cover band back in March for $70 a ticket until Covid 19 cancelled it.
