    :rofl: :lol: The look on her face would be priceless with a yard or three of sawdust dumped at her place.
    The veggies she'd give you would taste like oak! Mmmmm!

    Yesterday's mountain of edging slabs.
    I didn't do any edging during the whole job, because I wanted extra help to handle the slabs for edging.
    Took us 5 hours to get through it all.... it produced about 1,700 bf.

    Thats a lot. Is an "edging slab" the same as live edge?
