    And somewhat disappointed. I was sure I'd get called out on this one. Yesterday I posted a picture of some wood I'd just stacked. Perhaps I should have posted a bigger picture as it would have shown up better.

    If you look closely at the right hand side of that wood stack you'll see a glaring mistake. I'll show it to you below:

    Now who on earth would stack wood like that? That one block is turned so it makes the whole thing out of whack. It just needs to be rolled down to fix it but I was sure someone would call me out on this one.

    Yes folks, I did this on purpose... So, now I'll just go back and fix it while shaking my head. :picard: :headbang:

    Yes, I can see the point; from the mistake upward is not really holding. One could come back to find the stack has rolled out the bad side.

    I had noticed. But I'm Canadian so wanted to be polite and chose to not say anything.

    One time I thought I made a mistake but I was wrong, and that was the only time I ever made a mistake. :whistle:

    I would have tried to blame it on my wife, but she stacks 10x better than me. She reminds me of that often. Not a bad problem to have.:rofl: :lol: That being said Dennis, your stacks look fine to me.
