Nice stash.  Watch out for splinters when you get them out of there.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

Oh, yeah, well I didn't look.  So there!

I was hoping to see someone that had actually done it. I see you still have the bark on em. Did you spray those with a bug killer, if not watch out for the boreres cuz they will eat enough wood to make you cry...truuuust me.

You forgot to put in the tongue n' grooves. Send them to me as is and I will mill it in for you(sure). ;)
That certainly is a nice haul. Happy bowmaking.

It's easy to imagine what The Wife would have to say, and it wouldn't be a pleasantry!
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

Wife= Not thrilled.  But I told her its just until I can get a large shed in the back yard to build them in. Now she is super motivated for me to spend $1000 on a nice shed. And I told her when I get the shed we can strip out all the old carpet in the house and replace with hardwood flooring. She is happy now.

Thats how I'm getting my shed buddy! Fill up the house full enough that she can't walk and boom, a new shed in the works. Patrick
