    Hell yeah!!!!!!!!!!! Until termites can eat plastic, you're styling now!!! :cool: It took me years to get enough plastic pallets for my wood. Termites would eat the wood ones in a 2 year span down here... :mad:o_O:headbang:

    I get a couple or so a year from work. Slowly replacing the melted wooden ones
    One thing you’ll learn if you haven’t used them before, they’re slippery!
    Nice score!

    That deserves a you suck. Can’t find any more around here, I bought the last 30 at $5 each. If you would have any available at the fall GTG I’ll bring my trailer.

    farmer steve Don't worry about the odd size. You can lay them out in a row and put 2 rows of 16inch splits on them. Some t-posts on either end and you are good to go. I put this up last summer and I have some wood stacked on it now.

    I told him some of the wood guys I know might be interested and he said just to let him know. They are a little bit more solid on top for air flow but I might try a wood bit on one to improve air flow. Come on over and look at them and see what ya think.

    That's what I figure Erik. I want to stack some selling wood on them and gotta do some re- ciphering on dimensions.
