    Ya. I think you guys are correct. Although I think the O.S.B. sides will hold the wood just fine (I've done it several times.), you never know what someone else may think who is suppose to be keeping the roads safe. And those guys have a job to do. Sometime in the future I will get to work on building some stake sides. They will be nicer than using these pieces of O.S.B., and they may look a little nicer too! :emb: It was a trip of about 3.5 miles.

    I drove by a radar trap today with my little Saturn loaded down with about 13 large rounds of black locust! :rofl: :lol: Probably lucky he didn't pull me over and pinch my stash! :rofl: :lol:

    Yeah you make me look like a low class redneck with your hifalutin fancy truck filled with wood.. :rofl: :lol: Nice load gasy! I'd hate to be the guy stacking that up. Unloading could be fun though with a little help from the brakes! :whistle:

    The guy stacking that up? Cutting, splitting, then throwing, then stacking in the truck, then unloading. All done by me, myself, and I. :rofl: :lol: Hifalutin. :thumbs:

    Yes. I may build something like this when I find time. I might change a few things. I have some pressure treated I saved from a deck we tore off the camp so that could be a cheap build.

    Time for a short break after that work Gas. Good. Gives you some thinking time on how to build the racks.

    That's cool basod. Thanks for sharing. I bet that looked good on the truck. Did you paint it all black?

    I saw some pics a whole back when I was looking for plans for my sideboards that used a piece of that wire shelving stuff to create a "window" in the headache rack. The guy cut out a rectangle and sandwiched it in between some boards
    I'll see if I can find some pics, that may be easier than describing it :rofl: :lol:
