    I know Im a little different hoarder than most here but heres my latest haul. Coworker seen a pile of wood at the dump and asked permission to get some. We went after work and got our share. There is a mower and saw and some 5 gallon buckets underneath but still a nice load for not much effort. 4-30-14 024.jpg

    I get broken pallets and often there are a bunch of big pieces like this in the pile. Hey, what ever burns is good for me. Just watch how much heat these will produce as they might burn fast. You should get some nice tight stacks with this.;)

    That's all good wood and most times skids are Oak around here. Sometimes it's pine, but even pine is fine :thumbs: Nice haul!
