Alpo Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Somebody ought to teach them what a saw is. They wasted a whole hell of a lot of wood. Out of a tree, what, 4 ft in diameter they got 16 planks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is not one plank that wants to twist or crack. Who cares about waste when you can get that kind of strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
