Happened to pickup the local paper to find an ad listing a few Grizzly tools for sale. A jointer, a planner, and a bandsaw. Had the first two so I only bought the bandsaw for $50, got some friends to buy the other tools. (if that's not enough) The woman selling the tools mentioned that she had some old stuff under the tarp and wondered if they were worth much. Some old handtools, planes, saws, assorted other stuff. I was honest and told her she should check out the age and value, but she wanted to get ride of it, and told me I could have it all for $20. And right next to all the tools...........board after board of all sorts of lumber...oak, maple, and some that looks like ash, not sure, and lots of pine. And to top it off she gave it all to me for $0. ("Just make it go away, I need the space") So far three pickup loads, and I think I can get the rest in one more load. The wife's wasn't too happy, until I told here there was a couple thousand in wood I wouldn't have to buy. Now..........where can I store it all? Who needs a side yard anyway?
